What Is a Root Canal? | Root Canal Therapy in Jasper, AL | Bivona Family Dentistry

A root canal is a procedure where we remove the nerve from the inside of a tooth. This is typically necessary if there is bacteria or an infection inside the tooth, or if the nerve has become so damaged that you're experiencing significant pain. The goal of a root canal is to eliminate the source of the pain and infection while preserving the tooth itself, so you don't have to undergo an extraction or other surgical procedure. During a root canal, we carefully remove the infected or damaged nerve tissue, disinfect the interior of the tooth, and then seal it to prevent further infection. While a root canal isn't always the best solution for every situation, it can be the most effective way to quickly relieve pain and restore your tooth to good health. If you're experiencing tooth pain and suspect you might need a root canal, we'd be happy to evaluate your condition and see how we can help. Don't hesitate to give us a call—relief could be just a visit away. --- Should you or a loved one be experiencing the challenges of missing teeth or unstable dentures, we invite you to schedule a complimentary implant consultation with Bivona Family Dentistry.
