Root Canals

If you are experiencing unrelenting tooth pain, you may have a severe infection that has penetrated the tooth’s inner pulp chamber, which is home to very sensitive nerve tissues. To relieve your pain, your dentist may need to perform a root canal on the affected tooth to evacuate the infected tissue and clean out the area. This procedure can be done in the comfort of our Langley dental clinic. 

How a Root Canal Works 

At Willow Dental Care Langley, our experienced dentists are trained to handle root canals with care and compassion. Depending on the severity of your tooth root infection, your dentist will apply a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable during the procedure while they use high-tech dental instruments to clean out the infected area. Once the tooth root is cleaned out, your dentist may place a crown over the cavity to seal and protect the tooth.

How to Prepare for a Root Canal

If your dentist determines that you need a root canal procedure to address a serious tooth infection that has infiltrated the sensitive tooth pulp, they will make sure you know what to expect before, during, and after your procedure. Our dental team’s goal is to make sure you feel comfortable and supported when you arrive at Willow Dental Care Langley.
