Root Canals
Nobody likes getting a root canal. But when you have a severe tooth ache, you'd be willing to do just about anything to make it stop. Dr. Bogan and his staff have seen many patients in this predicament, and they're committed to easing your pain with as little stress as possible.
A root canal is a common treatment for painful and infected teeth. In this procedure, the dentist numbs the patient's mouth to avoid causing additional pain. The dentist uses a small drill to remove any decay and expose the roots of the tooth. Specialized tools are then used to carefully clean out infected tissue in the roots. The dentist finishes by sterilizing the roots and filling and crowning the tooth. Most root canals successfully relieve the pain of a toothache and preserve the tooth for years to come.
When you visit Dr. Bogan with a toothache, he'll start by thoroughly examining your mouth. Then he'll discuss your options with you and recommend the most appropriate treatment for you.
If it turns out you do need a root canal, rest assured that Dr. Bogan has successfully performed the procedure many times during his career. He uses advanced techniques, the best tools, and the utmost care to provide long-term relief to each patient who leaves his office.
