Root Canal Therapy
Are you worried about root canal surgery? We’re here to help.
New root canal methods offer fresh ways to save natural teeth. Knowing your choices for root canals matters greatly, as these decisions affect your health and how your teeth look now and later. Saving teeth should be a top goal, as root canals often make you healthier and improve your looks. At Horizon Family Dentistry, our Lindsay dentists try hard to save teeth, so don’t wait to book an appointment to keep them healthy!
What is a Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (RCT) cleans out bacteria from an infected tooth root, stopping further infection and keeping your natural tooth. Our Lindsay dentists do RCT by removing any infected pulp or nerve, cleaning the inside, and filling cavities with materials or crowns that make your tooth strong again and look great!
My Tooth Hurts,
Should I Consider Removal?
Getting professional dental help should be your first step when you have a toothache. Pulling teeth without talking to a dentist and treating them right can lead to worse health issues that make eating, speaking, and smiling harder—Our Lindsay dentists can help! We will help you choose the best way to keep your mouth healthy.
Why keep your teeth?
While pulling teeth might seem easier or cheaper, it can cause significant problems later. Missing teeth can move other teeth out of place, make it hard to chew, and hurt your smile. Also, pulling teeth often hurts more than fixing them, and it takes many trips to our Lindsay dentists for replacements!
Here are some helpful tips for preserving your teeth.
- When possible, opt for root canal therapy over tooth extraction. Natural teeth outperform artificial alternatives in looks, feel, and function.
- Don’t delay seeking help if you notice swelling or pain. At Horizon Family Dentistry, we promptly handle emergencies to ensure swift treatment.
- If your Lindsay dentist suggests extraction, inquire about the possibility of root canal treatment as an alternative.
Preserving natural teeth is often the best choice for long-term oral health. Regular check-ups and timely interventions can help maintain your smile for years.
