Does one of your teeth experience a constant, lingering pain? Do you feel an extra amount of pressure on the tooth as you chew food? Are you experiencing extra sensitivity when drinking hot or cold beverages? These are signs of possible inflammation or infection of the pulp, housed inside of the tooth. If this is the case, you need to receive root canal therapy as soon as possible to avoid further complications. To receive the best root canal therapy in Millburn, NJ, do not hesitate to contact Dental Charm.
We know that root canals are very infamous for being extremely painful and uncomfortable. Let us be the first to tell you that root canal treatments are not painful, and that the myth of uncomfortable therapy is false. With modern advances in dental care and technology, root canal therapy is now a comfortable and painless procedure, if handled by a professional. Dr. Robert Shick, an expert honored with the title of Top Dentist in NYC from 2010-2011, and his incredible team of practitioners have performed this procedure thousands of times with amazing results. We can remove the infected area, reduce inflammation, and provide complete relief for your pained tooth.
Your teeth have several layers. A root canal is necessary when the innermost part of the tooth becomes infected. The inner area of the tooth is known as the pulp, and it is comprised of blood vessels, nerves, and roots. The pulp can become infected due to deep decay, a crack or chip in the tooth, trauma to the face, and several other factors, and without treatment, your face can experience swelling, bone loss can become an issue around the tip of the root, drainage problems can extend outward from the root, and abscesses can form in the gums.
When undergoing our root canal therapy, our team will apply an anesthetic and numb the area around the tooth. A dental dam will surround the tooth, keeping it dry while we conduct our work. We will drill a small hole in the tooth, so we can access the pulp. We will use a series of very smile files to remove the infected pulp and clear out the tooth. We will then thoroughly disinfect the inside of the tooth with a special solution to prevent future infections. After all of the infected debris and bacteria have been flushed out of the tooth, we will fill the tooth and seal with whole with a rubber-like compound, called gutta-percha. Our team will place a customized crown on the tooth to restore structure and provide strength. And, with the crown in place, the procedure is over, meaning you can go back to eating your favorite foods and smiling a lovely smile, free of pain.
Dr. Shick and his team genuinely want to help every patient achieve optimal oral health and hygiene. If you require root canal therapy, we will correct the infected tooth with care and comfort.
