Root Canal Therapy
At European Dental Center, we recognize that the idea of undergoing a root canal treatment may be intimidating. Nevertheless, our team of skilled endodontists is highly proficient in performing root canal procedures with exceptional precision and attentive care. Our primary objective is to relieve pain, safeguard your natural teeth, and reinstate optimal dental health, enabling you to enjoy a functional and aesthetically pleasing smile.
A root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure performed to save a severely damaged or infected tooth. The treatment involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection. Root canal treatment not only relieves pain and discomfort but also prevents the need for tooth extraction and the potential complications that can arise from missing teeth.

Root Canal Therapy at Europe Dental Center
European Dental Center take pride in our exceptional success rates for root canal therapy. Our team of highly skilled dentists has accumulated extensive experience over the years, honing their expertise in various aspects of oral health care.
Comprehensive Evaluation: Our skilled endodontists will conduct a thorough examination, including X-rays, to assess the condition of the affected tooth and determine if root canal therapy is necessary.
Anesthesia and Comfort: We prioritize your comfort throughout the procedure. Local anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience during root canal therapy.
Pulp Removal and Cleaning: The infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed from the tooth, and the root canals are cleaned and disinfected to eliminate bacteria and prevent further infection.
Filling and Sealing: The cleaned root canals are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha, which provides stability and seals the canals. In some cases, a temporary filling may be placed until the tooth is fully restored.
Dental Restoration: After root canal therapy, a dental crown or filling is placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength, function, and aesthetics. This step ensures long-term protection and enhances the appearance of the tooth.
Post-Procedure Care: Our team will provide you with instructions on post-treatment care, including oral hygiene practices and any necessary medications. Regular dental check-ups are recommended to monitor the success of root canal therapy and maintain your overall oral health.
Signs you May Need Root Canal Therapy
Persistent Toothache:
If you experience consistent, throbbing tooth pain, it may indicate the need for root canal therapy. The pain can be aggravated by chewing or applying pressure to the affected tooth.
Sensitivity to Temperature:
Increased sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, particularly if it lingers after the stimulus is removed, can be a sign of significant tooth damage or infection.
Gum Swelling and Tenderness:
Swollen, tender, or discolored gums in the vicinity of a specific tooth may indicate an underlying dental infection that requires root canal therapy.
Tooth Discoloration:
Darkening or discoloration of a tooth may be a sign of internal damage or infection, necessitating root canal therapy.
Prolonged Sensitivity to Touch:
If your tooth is sensitive to touch, such as when eating or brushing, and the sensitivity lasts for an extended period, it could indicate the need for root canal therapy.
