What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth, disinfects the canals, and seals it to prevent reinfection. Modern root canal therapy in Utica, MI relieves pain quickly, restores function, and preserves your natural tooth.
Common causes of infection include:
Deep tooth decay reaching the pulp
Cracks or fractures allowing bacteria to enter
Dental trauma or injury
Old or failing dental restorations
Untreated cavities worsening over time
Our Root Canal Therapy Process
Digital X-Rays and Diagnosis
We begin with advanced digital X-rays to identify the location and severity of the infection inside the tooth.
Removing the Infected Pulp
A small opening is created in the tooth to carefully remove the infected or inflamed pulp tissue.
Shaping & Disinfecting:
The root canals are carefully shaped and thoroughly disinfected to remove all remaining bacteria and prepare the space for filling.
Cleaning and Shaping the Canals
The inner root canals are thoroughly cleaned, shaped, and disinfected to eliminate bacteria.
Dental Crown for Protection
In many cases, a custom dental crown is placed over the treated tooth to restore strength and protect it from future damage.
