What is a Root Canal?
Have you heard people talk about root canals and wondered what all the fuss is about? A root canal is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that is badly infected or decayed. It involves removing the infected pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning it thoroughly, and then sealing it to prevent further infection. Think of it as a deep clean for your tooth!
Signs You Might Need a Root Canal
Are you experiencing any of these symptoms? If so, it might be time to consider a root canal:
Persistent toothache
Sensitivity to hot or cold
Swollen or tender gums
Darkening of the tooth
Don’t ignore these signs—getting a root canal can save you from more pain and costly procedures down the road.

How the Root Canal Procedure Works
At Stehl Family Dental, we make sure your root canal procedure is as smooth as possible. Here’s how it works:
1. Assessment
We start with a thorough examination and X-rays to confirm the need for a root canal.
2. Anesthesia
To ensure your comfort, we administer local anesthesia to numb the area.
3. Cleaning
We access the pulp chamber and root canals, removing the infected tissue.
4. Filling
The cleaned canals are filled with a special material and sealed to prevent future infections.
5. Restoration
Finally, we restore your tooth with a crown or filling, ensuring it looks and functions like new.
Advantages of a Root Canal Procedure
Why choose a root canal over other options? Here’s why:
- Pain Relief: Eliminate the pain caused by tooth infection.
- Preserve Natural Teeth: Keep your original teeth instead of extracting them.
- Efficient Recovery: Quick recovery time with minimal discomfort post-procedure.
Root Canal vs. Tooth Extraction
Debating between a root canal and extraction? A root canal saves your natural tooth and maintains your smile, while extraction removes the tooth, potentially leading to shifting teeth and the need for additional procedures like implants or bridges. Choose a root canal to maintain your dental health and aesthetics.
