Root Canals and Extractions

Root Canals

Root canal treatment is an often straightforward procedure to relieve dental pain and save your teeth. Patients typically need a root canal when there is inflammation or infection in the roots of a tooth. During root canal treatment, an endodontist who specializes in such treatment carefully removes the pulp inside the tooth, cleans, disinfects and shapes the root canals, and places a filling to seal the space.

Extractions

Saving your natural teeth is our top priority at Ridgeview, but sometimes teeth are non-restorable. It may be necessary to extract the tooth due to conditions like:

  • Severe Tooth Decay
  • Advanced Gum Disease
  • Chronic Infection
  • Fractured Roots
  • Toothaches and Abscessed Teeth
  • Denture Treatments
  • Orthodontic Therapy

Keeping You Comfortable

During your dental extraction, our dentists will make sure you feel as minimal discomfort as possible. We will thoroughly numb the area around the tooth and even offer sedation if you like!

Replacing Your Missing Tooth

Why replace a tooth that you just had pulled? Because leaving the space empty can cause expensive complications later on. Your other teeth will start to drift or shift out of place due to the extra space. This can change the way your teeth bite together, straining your jaws and even causing fillings or crowns to wear out prematurely. That’s why Ridgeview dental care offers affordable tooth replacements like bridges and dental implants.
