    infected inner pulp.

    Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

    Root canal treatment offers a range of benefits that go beyond simply addressing pain. It plays a crucial role in preserving your oral health and overall well-being.
    1

    Save Your Natural Tooth & Maintain a Healthy Smile

    Root canal treatment prioritizes preserving your natural tooth structure. This is vital for maintaining a healthy bite, preventing teeth shifting, and preserving the natural aesthetics of your smile.

     

    Extracting a tooth necessitates replacements like implants or bridges, which can be more complex and expensive procedures in the long run.

    2

    Experience Lasting Pain Relief & Improved Oral Health

    By removing the infected pulp, root canal treatment effectively addresses the source of pain and discomfort. This significantly improves your oral health and overall well-being, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence and pain-free ease.

    3

    Prevent Infection Spreading & Potential Complications

    Left untreated, a tooth infection can spread to surrounding teeth and bone, leading to further complications and potential jawbone loss. Root canal treatment effectively eliminates the infection at its source, preventing these complications and promoting long-term oral health.

    Continuing Care and Maintenance
    Root canal treatment involves regular follow-ups, maintaining oral hygiene, avoiding hard foods, and addressing discomfort promptly for success.

    Regular Follow-ups

  • Schedule follow-up appointments with your dentist to monitor healing and assess the success of the root canal treatment.
  • Regular visits ensure any issues are detected early and addressed promptly.
  • Maintain Oral Hygiene

  • Brush teeth twice daily and floss regularly to keep the treated tooth and surrounding area clean.
  • Proper oral hygiene prevents infection and supports healing after root canal treatment.

  • Pain Management

  • Take prescribed pain medications as directed by your dentist to manage any discomfort following root canal treatment.
  • Over-the-counter pain relievers can also help alleviate mild discomfort.
  • Protect the Temporary Filling

  • Be cautious when chewing to avoid putting excessive pressure on the temporary filling.
  • Inform your dentist if the filling feels loose or comes out to prevent complications.
  • Address Discomfort Promptly

  • Contact your dentist if you experience persistent or severe pain, swelling, or other concerning symptoms after root canal treatment.
  • Prompt intervention can prevent complications and ensure optimal outcomes.
  • Consider Permanent Restoration

  • Discuss options for permanent restoration of the treated tooth, such as a dental crown, with your dentist.
  • A crown helps strengthen and protect the tooth, restoring its function and appearance.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Explore answers to frequently asked questions about root canal treatment, empowering you to make informed decisions tand achieve a healthy smile.
    Toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling around the tooth, or a visible pimple on the gum near the tooth are all potential signs. It’s best to schedule a consultation for proper diagnosis.
    The cost can vary depending on factors like the tooth location and complexity of the case. We offer flexible payment options and can discuss potential insurance coverage.
    Modern techniques and local anesthesia ensure minimal discomfort during the procedure. You might experience some mild sensitivity after treatment, but this can be managed with medication.
    Tooth extraction is the only alternative. However, it’s highly recommended to save your natural tooth whenever possible. Root canals preserve your natural bite and smile aesthetics.
    The duration can vary depending on the complexity of the case. A typical root canal can take one to two appointments.
    Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily, flossing regularly, and scheduling regular dental checkups and cleanings to prevent cavities and potential infections.
    For most patients, minimal recovery time is needed. You might feel some tenderness, but you should be able to resume normal activities after the procedure.
    It’s best to avoid hard or chewy foods for a few days after treatment while the area heals. Your dentist will provide specific instructions on dietary modifications.
    Left untreated, the infection can spread to surrounding teeth and bone, leading to further complications and potential tooth loss.
    With proper care and follow-up appointments, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime! Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial for long-term success.

    I had an appointment today at Towne Centre Family Practice, in Hillsborough, NJ and was pleasently surprised. I was weary after the retirement of my previous dentist who I had for about 30 years. I was impressed with the entire staff and process I went through at Towne Centre. Also, the office was immaculate. The staff made me feel at ease from the moment I walked in till the moment I left. They explained all procedures very clearly and in terms I could understand. Towne Centre will be my new dentist office. From a very satisfied customer, Edie T

    In April I passed out and lost my front tooth just one month before my senior prom! I thought I would be toothless for my last prom before I graduated and I was heart broken. Thankfully my mom got me a dentist appointment as fast as she could and I could not have been more grateful for the love and comfort I got from the staff at Towne Centere Family Dental. I had Dr. Lauren and Lucy and they made me feel like the most important patient they had and gave me so much love while I was in pain. For my tooth I needed a root canal (at a separate facility) and they sent me to the best one they knew. Also since I had lost my front tooth they wanted my tooth to blend in to the rest as best as possible. They sent me to a lab for color matching and because of the patient care that I had at Towne Centre Family Dental I had the biggest smile at my senior prom and all the days that have come since. I thank them every time I smile and could not have asked for a better Dentist.
