Save Your Smile
Root Canal Therapy
Don't let tooth pain control your life. Our gentle, advanced root canal treatments eliminate infection and save your natural tooth, often in just one visit.
There is a common myth that root canals are painful. In reality, the procedure is designed to relieve the intense pain caused by a deep infection in the tooth's pulp.
When the nerve of a tooth becomes infected due to decay or injury, it sends signals of distress (pain) to your brain. Root Canal Therapy removes this infected tissue, cleans the area, and seals it. It’s the hero of the story, saving a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.
At Diamond Coast Dental, we use state-of-the-art rotary instruments and digital imaging to perform root canals with incredible precision.
Unlike the manual tools of the past, our quiet, electric handpieces clean the root canals faster and more thoroughly. Combined with 3D imaging, we can locate even the tiniest canals that might be missed by the naked eye, ensuring the infection is completely removed and preventing future issues.
We know the phrase "root canal" can sound scary. That's why we go above and beyond to ensure your comfort.
With modern anesthetics, the procedure feels very similar to getting a routine filling. We also offer sedation options for anxious patients. Our goal is for you to be so relaxed that you might even doze off during the treatment. Most patients return to their normal activities the very next day, pain-free.
A root canal is only half the battle. After the infection is removed, the tooth can become brittle. To protect it for the long term, we typically place a custom-made Porcelain Crown.
This crown acts as a protective shield, restoring the tooth's full strength and functionality. It is color-matched to your surrounding teeth, so no one will ever know you had treatment. You keep your natural smile, fully functional and pain-free.
Delaying treatment can lead to tooth loss. Contact us immediately for a gentle evaluation and relief.
