Root Canal Therapy Explained Step by Step

  • Step 1: First, Dr. Holmes will gently administer a local anesthetic to numb your tooth and the surrounding soft tissue.
  • Step 2: Next, a dental dam will be placed over your affected tooth to isolate it from the rest of your mouth.
  • Step 3: Then, Dr. Holmes will drill a small access hole through the crown of the tooth.
  • Step 4: After this, she will remove the diseased and contaminated inner tissues and disinfect the root canals and pulp chamber.
  • Step 5: Your canals will then be gently shaped, filled, and sealed with a rubber like material called gutta- percha.
  • Step 6:  Finally, your tooth will be filled and perhaps crowned to prevent future decay and damage. When your root canal therapy procedure is complete, you will no longer feel any pain or sensitivity from the affected tooth.
