Root Canal Therapy

Root Canal Therapy is required for several reasons; it could be due to trauma, decay, or an infection within the tooth. In our office we use a rotary root canal system. The rotary root canal system is a slow moving hand piece, which allows files to clean out the roots and nerve of the tooth. This hand piece works a lot like a grain auger. In most cases a root canal is completed with just one visit, and often a permanent restoration such as a crown is required.
