What Is A Root Canal Treatment?

Our root canal procedure in Newcastle, ON begins with our dentists taking X-rays of the teeth and gums to detect the decayed pulp and confirm whether you’re a suitable candidate for the treatment. If that’s the case, the treatment will commence with anesthesia if needed to numb the infected area and allow you to feel at ease throughout the process.

Our dentist will strategically remove and disinfect the pulp chamber and root canals. The tooth will be sealed off with temporary dental filling to prevent bacteria from entering. The final step is for our dentist to place a dental crown on the treated tooth to preserve it and help restore your bite.

How Do You Care For Your Tooth Post-Procedure?

Resting a few minutes after the treatment before leaving our office can help you unwind and feel relief. Following this, you may have two or more appointments after the treatment to allow our dentist to examine your tooth. You can also help your tooth heal by:

• Not applying pressure to the tooth
• Brushing after each meal and flossing daily
• Avoid chewing on the treated tooth and eating hard foods
• If you smoke, ensure you take a break from smoking post-procedure as smoking can impact healing time
