Root Canals in Houston, TX

Do you suffer from frequent tooth pain, abscesses or severely decayed teeth? Antoine Dental Center can help! We provide root canal treatment in Houston for patients that suffer from frequent pain and infection in their teeth. Using our state-of-the-art dental technology and our extensive experience in the dental field, we can develop and provide the perfect treatment plan for your unique situation.

What is a root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is one of the best ways to treat infected, abscessed, or severely decayed teeth. A root canal treatment removes the diseased root tissue inside your tooth. Your Houston dentist may recommend a root canal if you have an extremely large cavity, a broken or severely damaged tooth, or have symptoms of infection, such as throbbing pain or persistent toothache. Rather than cause you pain, this process eliminates your pain and infection and saves your tooth. Using our digital X-rays, which provide us with a safe, quick, and accurate picture of your mouth or teeth, we can plan your root canal treatment with great precision.

Do you need a root canal?

Untreated tooth decay can cause such severe infections that it can damage the inside of the root of your tooth. As a result, this puts you at risk for losing your tooth. In the past, badly damaged or decayed teeth were extracted. Extracting your tooth can eliminate decay and infection, but it can also lead to other problems such as the increased risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and further tooth loss. Nowadays, we use alternative methods like root canals to counter the problems caused by tooth decay.

Why Does Tooth Pulp Need to be Removed?

That is a question you may want to consider, as it can lead to serious issues with your teeth if it is not handled properly. Your dentist can take care of this issue and take care of your teeth at the same time, however, there is something else that you need to know about and that is how you can remove it without having to get surgery done.

If your dentist thinks that there is some kind of infection in the pulp of your tooth then they will need to take steps to get rid of it. The main thing you need to know about is that most cases of infection in the pulp will clear up on its own without any treatment. However, if it does not clear up in time you will need to contact a specialist.

Once again, most people who need to remove this kind of pulp are those who have had cavities. These people are more likely to suffer from an infection in the pulp so if your dentist believes that you may have this problem then he or she will recommend surgery.
