Restorative Dentistry
Root Canals
When the nerve within a tooth's canals becomes damaged, the tooth can cause pain and pose a risk for infection. Root canal therapy will repair damage and preserve your natural tooth structure when the only other option is extraction.
Although root canal therapy is the source of anxiety for many people, these days the treatment is precise and comfortable. We will nitrous oxide for your comfort, and you can bring in a movie to watch during the root canal procedure or listen to music on headphones. If you need a molar root canal, Dr. Lindahl may refer you to a trusted specialist for care.
