Endodontic Care/Root Canal Therapy

If the pulp within one of your teeth becomes injured or infected, the tooth can often be saved through root canal treatment. However, if the injured or diseased pulp is not removed through a root canal, the tissue surrounding the tooth’s root can become infected and cause a painful abscess. Furthermore, neglected bacteria can damage the bone that anchors the tooth to the jaw. Mayo Family Dentistry provides root canal therapy for patients of all ages.
