Timely Treatment Matters To Your Health

Did we recommend a dental treatment for you or a loved one during your last visit, but you have yet to schedule the appointment? Receiving treatment for a dental concern soon after it is recommended is ideal. We know that life is busy with work, school, sports, family obligations, and general day-to-day happenings, but we encourage you to schedule your appointment as soon as possible. Soon it will be the holiday season, which is even busier for most people, and you may find it even harder to fit in that appointment. Several months could go by before you’re able to receive treatment, and in that time, your treatment needs may change. Even if you don’t need a specific treatment right now, it is important to understand that delaying necessary dental care can have real consequences.

Root Canal Therapy – A Way to Save Your Teeth

We believe in doing everything we can to help our patients save their natural teeth. Preserving the root of the tooth is extremely important to your oral health. Not only does a healthy tooth root support the tooth structure, but it also keeps the jawbone healthy and the structure of the face intact. For teeth that have experienced severe decay or trauma, one way we can save the teeth is with the use of root canal therapy. Unfortunately, over the years, thanks in part to many movies and television shows, root canal treatment has been continuously described as a scary or painful procedure. The reality is that a root canal is anything but painful or scary. In fact, a root canal is often used to alleviate the pain that can be associated with an infection in the tooth.
