We can restore your oral health and rid you of pain with gentle root canal treatment in Eagan.
Tooth infections can cause severe pain, and if you don’t seek treatment, an infected tooth may lead to serious health issues or the loss of the tooth. However, with prompt and efficient treatment, we can often save an infected tooth and restore your oral health.
Dr. Michael at Eagan Dental Care offers effective root canal therapy to his patients to relieve pain and help them keep their teeth healthy and strong.
Root canal therapy is necessary for teeth in situations where the soft tissue at the center of the tooth, known as the pulp, becomes inflamed or infected. If this occurs, the patient generally experiences either gradual or sudden pain in the tooth. The tooth may throb, or the patient may feel radiating pain through the neck, ears, sinuses, or jawbone.
The patient may also experience temperature sensitivity in the tooth, persistent jaw pain, and pain when they place pressure on the tooth, such as when they chew.
If you’re experiencing any of the above symptoms, it’s time to call Eagan Dental Care at (651)-452-5511 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Michael. During your appointment, Dr. Michael will thoroughly examine the tooth to see if root canal therapy is the appropriate solution.
Our fast and efficient team at Eagan Dental Care can have most simple root canal procedures completed in around two hours or less. And once we have treated the tooth, it may last a lifetime with proper care and attention.
In our Eagan dental office, Dr. Michael will take the following basic steps during your root canal therapy:
If you have an infected tooth, Dr. Michael is the Eagan dentist you can trust. He is a skilled and passionate dentist who puts your comfort and satisfaction above all else. At Eagan Dental Care, we will provide root canal therapy to get you back to a pain-free life.
