At Rudnick Dentistry, we want you to have a comfortable smile and live without pain. Dr. Rudnick provides endodontic services, including root canals, in the Palm Beach area.
While this procedure is often associated with pain, this is a myth. The truth is, root canal therapy helps remove the pain (rather than causing it), while promoting healthier teeth and gums.
What Is A Root Canal?
A root canal is an endodontic procedure that addresses an inflamed or infected tooth pulp. The tooth pulp is tissue with a jelly-like substance that’s at the center of the tooth. Because tooth pulp contains nerves, an infection here is very painful. It can also lead to tooth loss if untreated.
A root canal removes the infection and restores the tooth. Root canals are necessary if you want to keep your natural tooth and live without a painful toothache. The process isn’t much different than removing a deep cavity, but it can take a bit longer. Most patients find the treatment much easier than expected.
“Dr. Rudnick was very gentle and understanding. I had to have two root canals and need a lot of numbing. He listened to me and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. I would recommend him to anyone.”
Our Modern Approach to Root Canal Therapy
You can restore your smile in no time. There are three stages to root canal therapy:
Getting Care from Endodontic-Trained Dentists
Endodontics is the area of dentistry focused on repairing and treating issues with the soft tissue inside a tooth, also known as the tooth pulp. The most common endodontic treatment is a root canal, and despite its reputation, root canals are actually a positive, minimally invasive treatment.
With these treatments, you can get the necessary relief from painful tooth infections. Contact our office today to find out more!
Addressing Common Concerns About Root Canal Therapy
Root canal treatments often come with an undeserved reputation. Many patients have heard stories that portray root canals as uncomfortable or painful procedures to be avoided. However, with the advancements in modern dentistry, this perception couldn’t be further from the truth.
Advancements in modern dentistry have transformed root canals into comfortable procedures, aided by effective pain management techniques. Root canals actually relieve dental pain and improve your quality of life when you have a tooth infection.
At Rudnick Dentistry, your comfort is always our priority. We utilize the latest numbing medications and offer sedation options to ensure you remain relaxed and at ease throughout your treatment, allowing you to feel confident in your care.
