Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is a highly effective procedure designed to eliminate infection, relieve pain, and save your natural tooth from extraction. When decay or bacteria reaches the inner chamber of a tooth, it can cause severe pain and inflammation, requiring immediate treatment.

At Griffith Family Dental, we use advanced techniques to thoroughly clean, disinfect, and seal the tooth, preventing reinfection while minimizing discomfort. While mild sensitivity is common after treatment, proper aftercare—including elevating your head, using ice packs, and avoiding hard foods—helps ensure a smooth recovery. Preserving your natural tooth with a root canal is not only beneficial for your oral health but also prevents complications like bone loss, shifting teeth, and bite issues that can occur after tooth extraction.
