Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity could signal an infection deep within the tooth. Our practice offers root canal treatment in Louisville, MS, to remove infection, relieve discomfort and preserve your natural tooth. Root canals have a reputation for being uncomfortable, but modern techniques make the procedure smooth, effective and often no more difficult than getting a filling.
Patients can rely on our caring team to provide advanced care with comfort and precision in mind.
What to Expect from a Root Canal
A root canal is recommended when the inner pulp of a tooth becomes inflamed or infected. This can happen due to decay, a cracked tooth or trauma. If left untreated, the infection can spread and lead to tooth loss or other health issues.
Signs you may need a root canal include:
- Lingering toothache or pressure
- Sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swollen or tender gums near the affected tooth
- Darkening of the tooth
During the procedure, Dr. Steven Yarbrough carefully removes the damaged tissue, cleans the inside of the tooth and seals it to prevent future infection. Most patients feel significant relief after treatment and return to normal activities quickly.
ÂPreserving Your Natural Smile with Modern Techniques
Our dentist and team use advanced tools and digital diagnostics to ensure your root canal is completed with accuracy and care. Our priority is to save your tooth and eliminate pain while making your visit as comfortable as possible.
The treated tooth may be restored with a crown or filling to strengthen its structure and restore your bite. This approach helps you maintain your natural smile and avoid more invasive procedures in the future.
At Louisville Dental Associates, we focus on providing care that is both thorough and reassuring. We explain each step, answer your questions and help ease any concerns you may have.
