When you’re in need of a root canal procedure, you want to make sure you’re in the hands of experienced and professional dentists. At Alpine Vista Dental, we have a team of highly experienced and professional dentists who are skilled in root canal treatment. We take the time to understand your unique needs and provide personalized care to ensure that you get the relief you need.
The first step in the root canal procedure is to examine the affected tooth. This can be done through X-rays, allowing the dentist to determine the shape of the root canal, as well as the extent of the damage. An anesthetic is then used before the procedure so that the patient does not feel any discomfort.
The next step in the root canal procedure is to access the root canal. The dentist will use special instruments to make a small hole in the tooth, allowing them to access the inner portion of the tooth. Once the root canal is accessed, the dentist will clean it out, removing any damaged or infected tissue.
After the root canal has been cleaned out, the dentist will fill and seal the tooth. This is done by filling the root canal with a special material and then sealing it off with a rubber-like material. The filling and sealing process helps to prevent further damage to the tooth, and also helps to keep it healthy and functioning properly.
