Root Canal Therapy from Michel Dental

October 7, 2013

Are you experiencing tooth pain? It’s important to give us a call here at Michel Dental so we can inspect your smile to discover the cause of the discomfort and to restore health to your smile. A painful tooth may be a sign of a root canal infection, which we can treat with root canal therapy.

Usually, pain is a sign that there is a problem with your smile, and ignoring it will only make the problem worse. If a cavity has progressed so far that it’s breached the enamel of the tooth, or the tooth has sustained other damage or trauma, the inner pulp of your tooth can become infected. This inner pulp is known as the root canal of your tooth.

Dr. Michel will perform your root canal therapy by removing the decayed inner pulp of your tooth. He will then fill the canal with a biocompatible material and top the tooth with a crown to help strengthen it and to protect against further decay or damage. The sooner this problem is detected, the better chance we have of saving your tooth.

If you’re experiencing tooth pain, call us today. We can help restore your smile’s health with root canal therapy. Thanks to advances in dental technology, this procedure is now more comfortable than ever before, so you have nothing to fear. We’re here to help ensure that our patients have healthy smiles for a lifetime.

At Michel Dental, we offer quality dental care for a distinctive smile. Our Topeka dental office serves patients from Emporia, Lawrence, Manhattan, and surrounding areas. Call us today to schedule your appointment.
