A root canal treatment may require one to three visits to our office. The team at Kluth-Richardson Family & Cosmetic Dentistry will determine the best path to saving your tooth while making your experience as comfortable as possible. During the treatment, the affected tissue will be removed, the interior of the tooth will be cleaned and sealed, and the tooth will be filled with a dental composite. If your tooth has extensive decay, a crown may be placed to strengthen and protect the tooth from damage. With regular brushing, flossing, and dental visits, your restored tooth can last for years. To learn more about the procedure, and how it can be done comfortably, call our Kluth-Richardson Family & Cosmetic Dentistry to schedule a consultation.
