Root Canals

Root canals have a bad reputation. But, in truth, a root canal is a conservative treatment option to save an internally damaged tooth from extraction. The bottom line? A root canal from Park Cities dentist Dr. Lindley could be just want your smile needs to stay healthy, comfortable, and strong.

When the canals that lead from the tooth pulp to the root are compromised by a deep cavity, tooth fracture, or other trauma, they can become infected. You may feel pain and pressure that worsens as the infection grows. Untreated, a tooth with an infection in the innermost chambers can die, requiring removal and replacement with a prosthetic.

Dr. Lindley can eliminate early-stage infection with a root canal. He’ll remove the diseased tissue, place a biocompatible filler in the canals, then seal the tooth with a custom crown. Your smile will look and feel as good as new!
