Your appointment
What to expect at your root canal assessment visit.
Diagnosis and x-rays
We examine the tooth, review symptoms, and use x-rays when needed to understand the root, nerve space, and surrounding bone.
Clean the canals
If root canal treatment is appropriate, the affected tissue is removed and the canals are cleaned and shaped.
Seal the tooth
The canal system is filled and sealed to help reduce the risk of reinfection.
Plan the final restoration
A filling or crown is often needed after root canal treatment to protect the tooth for everyday chewing.
