Root Canal Services For Anderson, SC 

A root canal is a treatment used to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or has become infected. Root canal procedures are performed when the nerve of the tooth becomes infected or the pulp becomes damaged. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp is removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed.

Root canal procedures have the reputation of being painful. In actuality, most people report that the procedure itself is no more painful than getting a filling for a cavity. The discomfort experienced before seeking dental care is truly the most painful period of time, not the root canal procedure itself.

While we specialize in performing comfortable and efficient root canal procedures, our main goal is to have our patients avoid these circumstances through better dental hygiene practices. The best way to avoid tooth decay and infection is to make sure you are brushing and flossing on a daily basis. Regular teeth cleaning can help to avoid a number of different infections and issues inside our mouths. Our dentists and specialists suggest that all sticky and high sugar foods and drinks should be consumed in moderation, and that when we do treat ourselves that we take an extra minute to properly clean our teeth. Call today to make your regular teeth cleaning appointment or visit us if you are experiencing tooth pain!
