Decay and infection within your tooth can cause pain and other symptoms, eventually causing tooth and even bone loss over time.
At Bear Creek Family Dental in Lakewood, CO, Dr. Gregory Bauer can perform a root canal to relieve pain and preserve your tooth.
You may have heard root canals are painful...
Dr. Bauer uses gentle techniques, local anesthesia, and optional sedation, to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible. Most patients find that root canals are no more uncomfortable than getting a filling and can provide relief from the pain caused by an infection.
During a root canal treatment, Dr. Bauer can remove the infected tissue while preserving the healthy exterior of your tooth. This process maintains the proper function and appearance of your smile.
When left untreated, a dental infection can spread and affect surrounding teeth and gum tissue. A severe infection can eventually cause the deterioration of your jawbone, which will affect the stability of your entire smile.
