  Root Canal Disease
Make an Appointment

 

When Dr. Shahriar says you need a root canal, that's actually good news. It means they can save your tooth, instead of extracting it.

The procedure is not painful, as you may have heard. At Newton Dental Group we will numb the tooth so you won't feel any pain, and there is little discomfort afterwards. Extracting the tooth would be less healthy and more expensive.

Repairing the root canal is the way Dr. Shahriar can save the entire tooth. The other alternative is to pull the tooth entirely. However, leaving that space empty may create other problems, like making chewing and biting more difficult. Teeth may also shift their position if missing teeth are not there to hold the space.

If you decide to have the dentist pull the tooth and replace it with a denture or bridge, the cost will be significantly more than the cost of a root canal.

At Newton Dental Group, your root canal treatments will be performed by our experienced endodontist (i.e. root canal specialist), so you can rest assured that you will be receiving the best possible care.
