You don’t want to hesitate to find help if you have an infection. We’ll try to get you an appointment as soon as you give us a call. When you arrive, our top priority is to help you feel better. Your dentist will begin by examining your mouth. Our team will capture information about your smile with our digital X-rays and our intraoral camera. This helps your dentist identify the best method for treatment.

If your tooth needs a root canal, there’s no reason to worry. Keep in mind this treatment will restore your tooth and stop your pain. Plus, your dentist will ensure you don’t feel a thing. We will numb your mouth to minimize any discomfort. If you’re nervous, we also have sedation options to help you relax.

Your entire procedure will happen in a single visit, thanks to Dr. Alber’s techniques and technology. Here is what you can expect:

  • Removing the Infection – Your dentist will gently remove the infected portion inside your tooth. Then, he will clean and disinfect the inside of your tooth. After the infection is gone, he will fill your tooth with a rubber-like material. This will reduce the risk for further infection.
  • Restoring the Tooth – Using CEREC 3-D printing technology, your dentist will create your custom dental crown. This will happen in the same appointment as your root canal. This crown will protect your tooth and allow you to bite normally again.

Common Questions About Root Canals
Why have a root canal? +

Root canals are necessary when a tooth becomes infected. This happens when bacteria reach the pulp (the soft tissue inside a tooth). The bacteria can cause painful inflammation. This can make it difficult to bite and chew and may interfere with your day-to-day activities. A root canal removes the inflamed and infected tissue and rebuilds your tooth. You’ll avoid an extraction and be able to function without pain. It also prevents infection from spreading to other teeth.

Are root canals painful? +

Root canals have been made out to be the bad guy of dentistry, yet they are actually very beneficial. In the right hands, a root canal treatment doesn’t produce any more discomfort than you would experience from getting a tooth filling. Even so, we’ll use local anesthetic to ensure a comfortable procedure. Sedation is always available as well.

How much does a root canal cost? +

Each patient is unique, and each root canal case is different. So it isn’t possible to give you an estimate for your procedure without performing an exam, taking X-rays, and working up a treatment plan. Once we have gathered the information we need, we’ll give you a price for your treatment. As a convenience, we offer third-party financing options that allow you to pay off your treatment over time.

Can root canals be avoided? +

Yes, the good news is it’s unlikely you’ll ever need a root canal if you take good care of your teeth. Infection usually gets inside a tooth through severe decay or damage like a crack or break, necessitating a root canal. Repairing a cavity or other damage as soon as possible should prevent the need for root canal treatment.
