Root Canal Treatment Coppell
When Removing the Infection Means Eliminating the Pain
Root canals have a bad reputation for being painful procedures. This type of myth can make it harder for dentists when trying to explain to a patient that they need one to save their tooth from extraction. The real truth is that a root canal does not cause pain but instead eliminates the cause of it – an infection. If left untreated, it will spread, posing a more serious risk to your oral and overall health. Call us if you’re ready to make that terrible toothache go and stay away for good with root canal treatment in Coppell.

What Happens During a Root Canal?
Dr. Kiesel will start with a thorough cleaning before isolating the affected tooth. This will help to keep moisture from reaching the area. After numbing you and making a small opening in the tooth, she will access the inner chambers and canals, clearing away any diseased or decayed portions while also removing the pulp, which is the source of the pain and infection.
Once this part is complete, a biocompatible substance is then used to fill the tooth before it is effectively sealed to minimize the chances of reinfection. At a follow-up visit, a customized dental crown will be put into place to offer greater protection to the vulnerable tooth so that it can function normally.
