The Solution To Tooth Pain
Sometimes dental emergencies require root canal treatment to save your tooth and alleviate pain instantly. While many patients fear root canals because they have a reputation for causing pain, root canals actually relieve the severe symptoms associated with an infection.
At our emergency dental office in Longmont, CO, we use rotary endodontics for more precise treatment that allows us to complete the root canal more efficiently and with higher predictability. Patients find this method more comfortable, and it improves success rates.
We treat root canals here comfortably! We offer sedation and nitrous free of charge with all root canals! You can be put to sleep by Dr. Falkenberg while we complete your root canal treatment! In most cases, your root canal will feel no different than a common filling. It can save your tooth, eliminate your infection, and get you back to your everyday life!
Root Canals
Root canals are vital procedures for treating teeth that are deeply decayed or infected. The process involves removing the infected pulp, thoroughly cleaning the interior of the tooth, and sealing it to protect against future damage. Root canals can relieve pain and restore the tooth's function, making them essential for those dealing with severe toothaches or deep cavities.
If you are experiencing persistent tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, a root canal may be the right solution. Additionally, if you are noticing symptoms like bleeding gums or loose teeth, it is wise to visit our periodontist in Longmont, CO 8050.
