A tooth with an infection doesn't always require extraction. Root canal therapy can eliminate the infection, ease pain, and save your natural tooth if performed in time. Northlane Dental provides planned root canal treatments that prioritize comfort, accuracy, and long-lasting outcomes.
Root Canal Treatment: What You Need to Know
Every tooth contains soft tissue called pulp, which houses nerves and blood vessels. When decay, injury, or cracks lead to pulp infection, it can result in pain and swelling. Root canal therapy removes the infected pulp cleans the root canals, and seals the tooth to stop future infections.
Possible Signs You Need a Root Canal
You might need root canal therapy if you experience:
Pain in your tooth that won't go away
Teeth that stay sensitive to hot or cold
Swollen or sore gums near a tooth
A tooth that gets darker or changes color
Pain when you chew
If you don't treat these signs, the infection can get worse and cause more problems.
Why Keeping Your Real Tooth Matters
Saving your real tooth helps you chew right and keeps your bite lined up. It also stops other teeth from moving and keeps your whole mouth healthy. A root canal lets you keep your tooth instead of getting a fake one.
What Happens During Treatment

Recovery and Care After Treatment
After a root canal, you may feel slight sensitivity for a short time. Don't chew hard foods on the treated tooth until it's fixed. Keep brushing, flossing, and seeing your dentist to protect the tooth in the long run.
