You’ve heard the expression “I’d rather have a root canal!” You’ve probably even said it. We want to set the record straight. A root canal is a conservative and surprising comfortable treatment. Dr. Johnessee uses modern anesthesia methods and advanced techniques to make root canal therapy a stress-free experience – and one that may save your tooth from extraction. We offer single-visit root canal therapy to get you in, out, and on your way with a beautifully renewed smile.
Teeth contain canals that start at the pulp, or nerve, and extend to the root. When these canals sustain damage, they become vulnerable to infection. Left untreated, the infection only worsens. Best case: you experience pain and pressure. Worst case: you lose your tooth, as well as surrounding gum and bone tissue.
Dr. Johnessee performs root canal therapy to alleviate early-stage infection. By cleaning out the infection, inserting a filler, and topping the tooth with a custom crown, Dr. Johnessee eliminates dental discomfort and preserves teeth. So, if you need a root canal, don’t worry. Your smile is in good hands!
