Root Canal

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed pulp so you can keep your natural tooth. At The Smile Club we explain each stage, keep you numb and informed, and plan the final restoration so the tooth stays strong for chewing.

When bacteria reach the pulp, the tooth can throb to heat, keep you up at night, or form an abscess. A root canal cleans the canals, removes the infected tissue, and seals the space so you can keep the tooth instead of extracting it. Modern root canal care is about saving structure, not the horror stories people trade online.

We numb thoroughly, open the tooth, clean canals, and seal them. Some cases finish in one visit. Others need a second appointment with a temporary filling between. A crown or durable filling usually follows so the tooth can take chewing force again. Duration depends on anatomy and inflammation. Ask the team for your estimate.

Who this visit is for: patients with lingering heat pain, night pain, swelling around a tooth, or an exam that shows pulp involvement. Antibiotics alone do not finish the job. They may calm a flare while you wait for definitive care.

Afterward: mild soreness for a few days is common. Avoid hard chewing on that side until the final restoration is placed. Call us if swelling or severe pain returns.
