Welcome to Channel Islands Family Dental

What is a root canal and why is it done?

At Channel Islands Family Dental Office, we know that taking care of your teeth is not only about keeping them clean and nice. It is also about making sure they are healthy on the inside.

Sometimes, a tooth can have internal damage that you cannot see. If this problem is not treated on time, it can cause pain, infection, or even tooth loss.

This is where a root canal comes in. A root canal, also called endodontic treatment, is a procedure our dentists in Newbury Park perform with care and precision to save your tooth and protect your smile.

A root canal is a dental treatment used to save a tooth when the pulp is damaged. The pulp is the inner part of the tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. This damage can happen because of deep cavities, strong hits, or dental trauma.

  • Instead of removing the tooth, our specialists clean, disinfect, and seal the root. This allows your tooth to stay in your mouth, working normally and looking natural.
  • This treatment is very important because it helps you avoid dentures or dental implants. It keeps your natural tooth structure and helps maintain your smile.

Today, root canals are very safe and almost painless thanks to modern techniques and local anesthesia.

Signs you may need a root canal

Finding symptoms early is very important. These are some common signs that a tooth may need a root canal:

Pain when chewing or sudden pain

If you feel pain when eating, even if the tooth looks normal, it may mean the pulp is inflamed or infected.

Sometimes, the pain can start suddenly and strongly, even without chewing. This is a sign that the tooth needs immediate attention.

Darkening of the tooth

A strong hit or trauma can damage the nerve of a tooth and cause it to change color.

When a tooth becomes darker, it can mean the blood flow inside is affected, and a root canal may be needed to save the tooth.

Swollen gums

When the root of a tooth is infected, the gums and nearby tissues can also become swollen.

Swelling that does not go away, feels painful, or is sensitive to touch can be a sign that a root canal is necessary.

Bad taste or bad smell in the mouth

An untreated infection in the tooth root can cause a dental abscess. This may produce pus, a bad smell, or a bad taste in the mouth.

A root canal removes the infection and helps restore oral health, relieving these uncomfortable symptoms.
