Hold on to that natural tooth for longer!
Teeth decay, break, and crack. When this happens, a root canal might be the best course of action. Root canal therapy salvages the natural tooth rather than replacing it with a dental implant. The tooth will appear the same way it did before the procedure and may last forever without another treatment.
Key Benefits:
- Keep your natural smile and avoid dental implants
- Essentially painless
- Short treatment process
- Maintain normal biting sensation

Additional Information
Root canal treatment is necessary when the pulp (soft tissue inside your teeth containing blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue) becomes inflamed or diseased. During root canal treatment, your dentist or endodontist (a dentist who specializes in treating the insides of teeth) removes the diseased pulp. The pulp chamber and root canal(s) of the tooth are then cleaned and sealed. If the infected pulp is not removed, pain and swelling can result, and your tooth may have to be removed.
Causes of an infected pulp could include:
- a deep cavity
- repeated dental procedures
- a cracked or broken tooth
- injury to the tooth (even if there’s not a visible crack or chip)
If you continue to care for your teeth and gums your restored tooth could last a lifetime. However, regular checkups are necessary; a tooth without its nerve can still develop cavities or gum disease. Most of the time, a root canal is a relatively simple procedure with little or no discomfort involving one to three visits. Best of all, it can save your tooth and your smile.
FAQ:
Does it hurt?
In the past root canals have been quite painful but with new advances is no more uncomfortable than a regular filling
Will I need any other work other than my root canal?
You may require a dental crown so that the tooth does not fracture following the treatment. A tooth that has undergone the therapy may become more brittle and overtime may be susceptible to cracking.
Will my insurance cover the cost of my root canal?
Most of our treatments are covered by a majority of insurance companies. For a more detailed explanation of your coverage please call your service provider.

Excellent quality and care Dr Butany takes the time to explain everything, he is very knowledgeable and caring. My family and I have been going there for over 3 years and have always had a great experience. I would highly recommend this dental office!

Excellent dentist and staff Dr. Butany has been our dentist for over a decade and we have always found him and his staff to be friendly, efficient and on time. The office has a spa-like vibe; very clean and welcoming. I had a chipped tooth and they were able to see my that day to fix it - even staying past their regular business hours to help! And, as a bonus, our kids like playing in the waiting area and really enjoy all the attention they get from Dr. Butany and the staff. They truly look forward to going to the dentist!

Love Dr Butany's dentistry The dental hygienists are amazing here. I have sensitive teeth and they are always so careful to ensure I am completely comfortable at every visit. Dr Butany's is an amazing dentist who is caring and very knowledgeable. I switched to him from my family dentist I had been seeing for 18 years, so I was worried but the transition was seemless. I would recommend this practice to everyone!
