Here's the truth about root canals: the pain people fear is the toothache before treatment, not the treatment itself. A modern root canal removes the infected nerve inside the tooth, relieves the pressure, and lets you keep your natural tooth. With today's techniques and anesthesia, most patients say it felt like getting a filling.

Common questions
Do root canals hurt?
The area is completely numbed, and most patients report the procedure feels similar to a large filling. What hurts is the infection beforehand. Treatment is the relief.
What are signs I might need a root canal?
Lingering pain with hot or cold, pain when biting, a darkening tooth, or swelling near the gum. If any of that sounds familiar, call us. Sooner is always easier.
Is it better to just pull the tooth?
Keeping your natural tooth is almost always better for your bite, your bone, and your wallet long-term. We'll walk you through both options honestly.
