What Causes Tooth Pain?
- New onset of pain
- Pain that lingers and/or wakes you up at night
- Sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swollen gums
- Sores on your gums (known as abscesses)
- Pain that radiates from a single tooth
Don't worry about the pain of a root canal. While they have a reputation for being uncomfortable, the pain from an infected tooth is much worse. We make sure to numb the area before starting the procedure, and we offer sedation options for anxious patients to help keep them relaxed. Check out our blog post to learn more about the truth behind root canal pain.
The Root Canal Procedure
If you come to Crow Family Dental with symptoms that require a root canal, you may think you need to see an endodontist for the procedure. However, our dentist [doctor-name-short] can actually perform the root canal right here in our office!
Before starting the procedure, we will take X-rays of your mouth to assess the tooth that needs treatment. Once you are in the dental chair, we will numb the area to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. Dr. Crow will clean out the infection from the root canals within the tooth, fill them with an antibiotic, seal the canals, and place a filling in the tooth. If necessary, a crown may be placed on top of the tooth for added protection and strength.
Root Canal Cost
We’ll be able to give you a cost estimate for your root canal surgery once we’ve had you in for a consultation. Like with all major treatments, we won’t begin work until we’ve gone over your estimate. We never want you to feel caught off-guard by the cost of treatment. When it comes to payments, our Stevens Point, WI practice is very insurance friendly. We also accept payments through CareCreditSM and Comprehensive Finance.
