Trusting A Root Canal To Address A Cavity
When cavities form, they do irreversible harm to your tooth structure. Fortunately, you can limit how much damage occurs when you schedule treatment in time. If you fail to do this, bacteria can eventually gain access to your pulp, your tooth’s central chamber, due to the harm to your enamel. At this point, a root canal treatment will have to take place to stop the problem from growing worse. When patients experience problems with cavities that cause heightened sensitivity and pain, or notice issues like tooth discoloration or swollen surrounding tissues, it can point to a need for root canal therapy. This procedure deals with infections so that they no longer cause problems for your tooth, and so that they do not create larger issues for your oral health. Patients who count on Sunny Smiles for support can come to us when they have dental problems that suggest a root canal is needed. (more…)
