Safe and Effective Root Canal Therapy
The experienced dentists at Sumrall Dental Clinic have the skills and the experience to perform various root canal procedures. During the root canal or endodontic procedure, our dentists will remove diseased pulp from the central part of your tooth, reshape the canal, and replace it with a filler material.
When the cavity is left long enough, it can burrow deeper into your tooth. This causes severe structural damage. When this damage is beyond what can be treated with a filling, we will perform a root canal.
For many patients, the term root canal can cause a lot of anxiety. You can count on the friendly team at Sumrall Dental Clinic to walk you through the steps and stages of root canal therapy.
