Despite what you might have heard, root canals don't cause pain. Instead, it's the only procedure that will relieve the pain from an infected or abscessed tooth and prevent an extraction. If you need a root canal in Moses Lake or worry you have an infected tooth, call (509) 707-8696 for an appointment.
You've never heard of stress-free root canals? You'll find them at Skyview Dental. We use modern technology, powerful anesthetics, and oral sedation to make your root canal easier and efficient.
Understanding these benefits and dismissing the rumors you've heard about root canals helps you take the right step toward saving your smile. If you're in pain, call (509) 707-8696. We can usually see you right away if you need urgent care.
When the inside part of your tooth becomes infected from bacteria or damage, the only way to treat it is with a root canal. Before we begin your treatment, we'll numb the tooth so you don't feel a thing. We can also offer laughing gas so you relax and remain comfortable during your appointment.
Here is how the rest of the procedure will work:
In some cases, at the same visit Dr. Despain can place a dental crown using our CEREC® system, which crafts, designs, and fabricates your new crown. However, most of the time your mouth needs time to heal. You'll return in about two weeks for your restoration.
The most well-known symptom of a tooth infection is pain that keeps getting worse. However, you may also notice other symptoms. If you recognize any of these signs, call our dental office ASAP. If you wait too long, we may not be able to save your tooth with a root canal and it will have to be removed.
The best way you can prevent root canal treatment is with good oral care practices. Brushing and flossing is only the start. You should also visit us every six months for cleanings and exams. If you don't have insurance, be sure to sign up for our in-house membership club. For a small monthly fee, you get coverage on your cleanings, exams, and any necessary emergency X-rays.
