Root canal therapy is a treatment used to save a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged. During a root canal procedure at Smile McKinney Dental, you can expect:

•   Removal of the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth
•   Cleaning and disinfection of the tooth’s interior
•   Sealing of the tooth’s root canals
•   Placement of a dental crown to restore strength and function

Root canal therapy can relieve pain, save your natural tooth, and prevent the need for extraction.
