Root Canal Therapy
![]()
The pulp, located in the center, softer part of the tooth, can become infected if bacteria is able to spread and goes untreated. Once the pulp becomes infected, extreme pain and discomfort can follow, potentially affecting surrounding teeth. It is important to address the infection as soon as possible. Our Beachwood Dental team provides prompt, effective treatment to eliminate the infection and help save the damaged tooth.
During a root canal, our dentists will extract the infected pulp from the inner part of the tooth. If the infection is not too far gone, then the tooth will then be capped or filled in and allowed to heal back and restore properly. We encourage our patients who may be suffering from infection to contact our office immediately to schedule a consultation.
