Root Canal Treatment in Shelby Township: Relieve Pain & Save Your Tooth
If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need a root canal. At Pearly Smile Dental Studio, we understand that the term “root canal” can sound intimidating, but the truth is: modern root canal therapy is comfortable, efficient, and incredibly effective at relieving pain.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed tissue inside the tooth. This infection typically results from:
- Deep decay
- Cracks or fractures
- Trauma
- Old failing dental work
Without treatment, infection can spread and lead to tooth loss or serious complications.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
- Persistent toothache
- Pain when chewing
- Sensitivity to hot/cold
- Swollen gums
- Abscess (pimple-like bump)
- Darkened tooth
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, call us immediately.
