Root Canals in Huntington Beach
and Corona offices

How can a root canal help me? Root canal therapy is a procedure designed to remove pain and to save the tooth by avoiding tooth extractions.

A common misconception about root canal therapy is that the root is never removed; it is merely the nerve tissue. After a root canal treatment the tooth becomes a non-living tooth.

Indications for a root canal are to save tooth structure, maintain ability to chew and prolong the quality of your life.

Many times a root canal can be finished within one office visit and a temporary filling is placed. After the procedure, to restore chewing function, a porcelain crown is cemented.

The reputation of root canal therapy pain can cause patients to avoid this procedure. But in fact most root canals do not have post operative discomfort.

Cost varies from the number of canals or roots that an individual tooth has formed.
