Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Therapy for Diseased Nerve Tissue

We all know that constant tooth pain can be a terrible experience. If you're experiencing lingering pain when talking, eating or drinking hot or cold fluids, it may be more than a cavity. If a decaying tooth is not treated early, it can penetrate the pulp of the tooth and compromise the nerve tissue.

Symptoms can also be present because of a traumatic injury from years past. A diseased inner tooth causes a lot of problems. If the infection spreads, pus can develop that leads to an abscess and swelling.

At Boise Dental Chair, our root canal therapy removes the diseased nerve tissue from within the tooth. The inner chambers are then cleansed, disinfected and filled with a material designed to prevent infection. With root canal therapy, we can help to resolve dental infections and save your natural tooth from extraction.

Despite its reputation, patients rarely experience any discomfort or pain at our state-of-the-art dental practice. Our patients enjoy watching a movie or may even fall asleep during treatment. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, please call (208) 244-7532.
