Cedar City Root Canal
Have you been experiencing severe tooth pain? If so, chances are that you may need root canal therapy. Of course, only a trip to the dentist will determine what the cause of your tooth pain is; however, severe tooth pain is generally a sign that something serious is going on in your teeth or gums. When you have tooth pain it is best to visit a dentist as soon as possible, when the likelihood of being able to save the tooth is much greater. If you need oral surgery in Cedar City in the form of root canal therapy, you will want to visit us at Corry Dental.
Corry Dental is a fine dental practice that specializes in cosmetic, family and sedation dentistry. We strive to provide quality care for our patients in a comfortable and stress-free setting. If you need root canal therapy, the therapy will be performed using a procedure that is totally comfortable for our patient. However, if you are particularly stressed about the procedure, and suffer from a true fear of dentistry, we are happy to be able to offer you treatment with sedation dentistry. Our sedation dentistry used as part of our oral surgery in Cedar City will help you feel relaxed and comfortable during the procedure. The type of sedation we offer during root canal therapy is oral sedation. We will give you a pill to use at your root canal appointment, and you will be able to go through the procedure in a relaxed manner. You will of course need a ride to and from the dental visit.
Root canal oral surgery in Cedar City is performed by one of our two fine dentists, Drs. Doug Corry and Aaron Lewis. During root canal therapy our dentist will gain access to the interior part of your affected tooth, and then remove any infected tooth pulp and bacteria. After this is done, the tooth is filled and sealed. Generally a ceramic cap will be needed to be placed over the tooth to help keep the tooth strong, protected and fully functioning. The only reason root canal therapy is performed is to save the life of a tooth. It has an excellent chance of success, and this is important because that means you will not need to get a denture, bridge or dental implant to take the place of a missing tooth. If you are suffering from a painful tooth or swollen gums, we hope you will make an appointment today to visit one of our fine dentists at Corry Dental.
