Root Canals in Billerica

 

Root Canals become necessary when tooth infections become severe. Root Canal therapy can eliminate infection, alleviate discomfort, and save your natural tooth for years to come.

Saving Your Teeth

Root canal procedures are a common necessity for adults dealing with severe toothaches or tooth infections, which would otherwise cause irreparable tooth damage.

Despite misconceptions, root canals are vital for preserving your natural teeth. At Future of Dentistry in Billerica, your comfort and well-being are our top priorities.

Our root canal procedures are designed to remove the infected pulp from inside the tooth, clean the root canal, and seal it to prevent further infection. This process not only alleviates pain but also saves your natural tooth, allowing you to maintain your smile and dental function.

While root canals are typically painless, we understand dental anxiety is real. That’s why we also offer a comfort menu featuring blankets, headphones, and hot towels to ensure you feel relaxed throughout your treatment. Additionally, you can always talk to our friendly team, so we can help find the best option for those who need extra comfort and relaxation during their procedure.

What Is A Root Canal?

The term “root canal” can either refer to the physical root canal in the tooth or the procedure for cleaning it out when it becomes infected.

The physical root canal is a pathway through the center of the tooth that houses pulp, which is nerve tissue. It is through this nerve tissue that oxygen and other nutrients are transported to the tooth roots.

Root canal treatment is required when this inner pulp chamber becomes infected. The sooner we can spot the tooth infection and treat it, the better; if the pulp decays to the point of death, this can cause an abscess, a painful infection of the jawbone near the tooth root, as well as a severe toothache.

The root canal procedure is a bit infamous for being painful and traumatic. Today, thanks to modern advancements in dental technology, root canals aren’t nearly the nightmare they were in the past. This procedure can be performed quickly with virtually no pain—while at the same time, it removes the pain of your toothache.

That being said, we at Future of Dentistry take dental anxiety seriously. We will do whatever we can to help our patients feel safe, secure, and comfortable during their procedures.

How Do Root Canals Work?

The purpose of root canal treatment is to thoroughly cleanse the inside of a tooth that has been severely damaged by decay or infection. Tooth infection is usually the result of poor oral hygiene or trauma that has allowed bacteria to creep into the tooth’s core and infect the healthy pulp located within the pulp chamber.

At Future of Dentistry in Billerica, we use a computer-controlled device to locate the root canal in a given tooth and remove the diseased nerve tissue with little to no discomfort—all in a single visit. This advanced technology ensures precision and efficiency, making the procedure as comfortable as possible for our patients.

Once the inside of the tooth is cleaned and the damaged pulp removed, we fill your tooth with a biocompatible material to seal it and prevent another tooth infection. This process not only eliminates the source of pain but also fortifies the tooth against future issues. For maximum protection, we reconstruct the tooth with a white filling that helps rebuild the tooth roots. This step is crucial for restoring the tooth’s structure and functionality.

To complete the procedure, your tooth will be topped off with a beautiful porcelain crown. This crown is custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result. The crown provides additional strength and protection, allowing you to bite and chew with confidence.

Your toothache will be gone, and you can rest easy knowing your mouth is free from that tooth infection. At Future of Dentistry in Billerica, we are dedicated to helping you relieve pain through this life-changing procedure. Our goal is to restore your dental health and ensure you leave our office with a smile.

We are here to help our many neighboring communities, including Billerica, Tewksbury, and Wilmington get relief from painful abscessed teeth.

Had my dental checkup on 10/15 & met with hygienist Paulina, who I've had before. Paulina went about cleaning my teeth, then polishing them. She mentioned how clean my teeth where, always good to hear. Then Dr came in looked oner my teeth, no cavities, always good to hear. There was a white spot on my lower jaw, maybe caused by my dentures, so was advised to rinse my mouth with a warm salt water rinse for 2 was & will see if any adjustment to my lower denture needed to be done. 2 week appointment made.
