What Is Root Canal Therapy?

Root canal therapy is a restorative dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has been severely damaged or infected. The treatment involves removing the infected or inflamed nerve (pulp) inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection. A crown is then placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength and function, ensuring a long-lasting solution.

When Is Root Canal Therapy Needed?

Root canals are typically recommended when the nerve of a tooth becomes damaged due to:


  • Deep Decay: Cavities that extend into the pulp can cause infection or inflammation.
  • Injury or Trauma: A cracked or broken tooth can expose the pulp to bacteria.
  • Repeated Dental Procedures: Multiple treatments on the same tooth can irritate the pulp.
Common Symptoms Indicating a Root Canal May Be Needed:
  • Sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks.
  • Persistent tooth pain or discomfort.
  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth.
  • Pain when biting or applying pressure.
  • A recurring or bad taste in the mouth, often from infection.
The Root Canal Process

At Kasey Davis Dentistry, we make the root canal process as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Here’s what to expect:


  1. Diagnosis & Consultation: A thorough examination and X-rays are performed to assess the condition of the tooth and confirm the need for a root canal.
  2. Numbing & Preparation: Local anesthesia is used to ensure the area is completely numb.
  3. Cleaning the Canals: The infected or inflamed pulp is carefully removed, and the root canals are cleaned and shaped.
  4. Sealing the Canals: The canals are filled and sealed to prevent reinfection.
  5. Restoring the Tooth: A custom crown is placed over the tooth to protect it and restore its function.
