Root canals have a reputation for being painful, but with today’s technology and gentle techniques, the procedure is safe, effective, and often no more uncomfortable than getting a dental filling. At Oasis Dental Team in Bala Cynwyd, PA, we provide root canal therapy to relieve pain, save natural teeth, and restore oral health.

When Is a Root Canal Needed?

You may need a root canal if the pulp of your tooth becomes infected or inflamed. Common symptoms include:

  • Severe toothache or sharp pain while chewing

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold foods and beverages that lingers

  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the tooth

  • Darkened or discolored tooth structure

Without treatment, infection can spread, leading to abscesses and possible tooth loss.

The Root Canal Process

At Oasis Dental Team, root canal therapy is performed with precision and comfort in mind:

  1. We begin with digital X-rays to assess the tooth.

  2. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area.

  3. The infected pulp is carefully removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected.

  4. The tooth is sealed to prevent further infection.

  5. In most cases, a crown is placed to strengthen the tooth and restore function.

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

  • Saves natural teeth from extraction

  • Eliminates infection and pain

  • Restores chewing ability and comfort

  • Prevents spread of infection to surrounding teeth and gums
