A root canal is needed when tooth decay or infection reaches the pulp, causing severe pain and sensitivity. If left untreated, it can lead to abscess formation, swelling, and even tooth loss. Common symptoms include persistent toothache, increased sensitivity to hot or cold, gum swelling, and discomfort while chewing. A painless root canal treatment typically takes one to two sessions, lasting about 60 to 90 minutes each, where the infected pulp is removed, the tooth is cleaned, and a filling or crown is placed. The benefits include pain relief, preservation of the natural tooth, prevention of further infection, and restored chewing function. ARCLIGHT DENTISTRY specializes in painless root canal treatment using advanced techniques and anesthesia to ensure a comfortable experience. Their expert endodontists focus on precision and care, helping patients restore their dental health without fear or discomfort, making it a stress-free procedure with long-lasting results.
