Dr. Fox Performs Swedesboro Root Canals Treatment

While infected teeth can be extracted, root canal therapy gives you the option of keeping your smile intact. Dr. Elizabeth Fox will assess the condition of your tooth and walk you through the pros and cons of both procedures so you can decide which is right for you. But there are some good reasons for choosing root canals treatment in Swedesboro:

Your Smile Will Look the Same – Because a root canal procedure preserves your tooth, your smile should look the same as before.
It Doesn’t Live Up to Its Reputation. Though it has a reputation as a painful procedure, up-to-date techniques and local anesthesia make root canals comfortable for most people.
You’ll Keep Your Oral Function – With your tooth structure intact, you’ll enjoy the same oral function. You also won’t need to worry about suffering the bone loss that results from a missing tooth.
You Won’t Need a Tooth Replacement – If you get a tooth extracted, you’ll need a dental implant or other tooth replacement, which will involve an added cost.
You’ll Require Less Follow-Up Care – Most people recover quickly following root canal therapy.

Common Questions About Root Canals

Why have a root canal?

Root canals are needed when the pulp inside the tooth becomes diseased. This can happen either when a cavity goes untreated and infection spreads to the pulp, or when a tooth undergoes some sort of trauma that allows bacteria inside. In either case, we can usually save the tooth with root canal treatment.

Are root canals painful?

While they have that reputation, most patients find a root canal no more uncomfortable than receiving a filling. The procedure eliminates pain, it doesn’t cause it! We’ll numb your mouth with local anesthesia so you don’t feel pain. You may find it easier to relax if you also take soothing oral medication prior to your procedure.

How much does a root canal cost?

Without performing an exam on your mouth, it’s difficult to estimate the total cost of root canal treatment. The cost may be determined by the location of the tooth and the severity of the damage. Plus, we normally recommend capping the repaired tooth with a crown to help strengthen it, so the cost of the crown would need to be figured into the total treatment cost.
