Don’t Let Tooth Pain Control Your Life—Expert Root Canal Care Is Here
If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need a root canal. At APEX Dental Implants and Family Dentistry Services, Dr. Jay specializes in gentle, effective root canal therapy designed to relieve pain, eliminate infection, and save your natural tooth.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp inside a tooth, cleans and disinfects the canals, and seals them to prevent further infection. It allows you to keep your natural tooth rather than having it extracted.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
- Persistent tooth pain or throbbing
- Sensitivity to hot or cold lasting minutes
- Swelling or tenderness around the tooth or gums
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
- A recurring pimple or bump on the gums
- Pain when chewing or biting
If you experience these symptoms, don’t wait. Early treatment helps prevent complications.
