Midtown Root Canal

If deep decay or traumatic injury has caused irreversible damage to the nerve of your tooth, your dentist may recommend root canal therapy. At SmileNY, we use state-of-the-art approaches to provide precise and gentle treatment, keeping you comfortable, relaxed, and informed throughout your care. When you visit us for Midtown root canal therapy, you can expect the compassionate, quality treatment that you deserve.

Root canal treatment addresses damage to the dental pulp, a layer of core tissues, nerves, and blood vessels that lie underneath the tooth’s outermost biting surface. When a tooth is fractured or decayed, bacteria can seep in and infect the dental pulp. If your tooth is infected, you may experience symptoms such as persistent oral pain, fever, and swelling. A toothache requires a prompt visit to your dentist, who can address the underlying cause of your symptoms and provide you with much-needed relief. During root canal therapy, your dentist removes the unhealthy pulp from the canal of the tooth, then shapes the canal and fills it with inert, biocompatible materials. Throughout treatment, your highly skilled dentist and professional staff keep you at ease, prioritizing your comfort while delivering highly effective treatment. A successful root canal prevents subsequent infection and alleviates your toothache. Root canal treatment has a ninety-five percent success rate, and a tooth that has been treated with a root canal can remain healthy and functional throughout your life. Following treatment, your dentist may recommend restoring your tooth with a dental crown.

If you require a root canal procedure, it’s important to find a dentist who is skilled and experienced in the most advanced techniques. At SmileNY, you can rest assured that you are receiving the highest quality care. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, give us a call today.
