Root Canal Therapy in Greenville, SC

Endodontic therapy, the treatment of a root canal, is a necessity when it comes to saving badly infected or damaged teeth.

Smiling woman thanking her doctor for a painless root canal procedure.A root canal is a restoration that extends into the inner nerve chamber of the tooth, rather than just the outside. We first remove the infected nerve tissues, clean the chamber, medicate it, and then place the filling material inside. Once the root canal is complete, we will need to place a crown over the tooth to preserve normal biting function.

Do You Need One?

Some of the reasons our patients need a root canal include conditions like:

  • Abscessed Teeth
  • Trauma
  • Dying Nerves
  • Chronic Pain
  • Cracked Teeth
  • Deep Cavities

Root canals save teeth before they break down to the point of requiring an extraction. In many cases, they are the last option available for restoration of the tooth. Avoiding a root canal because the tooth does not hurt could quickly progress into losing the tooth due to spread of infection.
