Root Canal Therapy

Trust Greensborough Dental – Your Root Canal Specialists Markham, for the best root canal therapy

Although our teeth are solid on the outside, they have a hollow canal on the inside that is home to the dental pulp. The pulp consists of nerves, blood vessels and soft tissue. If the pulp gets infected or injured, due to a fracture, dental accident, decay or cavities, Root Canal Therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, might be necessary. Come visit the professionals at Greensborough Dental – your Markham dentist. 

The Root Canal Therapy Treatment Process in Markham, ON

Today’s dental technology has made the endodontic treatment process smooth, simple and comfortable.

1. Oral sedation or local anesthesia is usually used to bring you to a comfortable, relaxed and pain-free state, while our professional dentist at Greensborough Dental gets the chance to do what he excels at the most.
2. First, Dr. Riazi makes an opening into the chewing surface of the tooth, giving him access to the pulp chamber.
3. He then removes the infected pulp and cleans the space thoroughly, making sure that there’s no sign of infection left.
4. The pulp chamber is then filled and sealed carefully, so that there’s minimum to no chance for the infection to reoccur.
5. In most cases, a dental restoration has to be attached onto the tooth to restore the tooth’s shape, strength and function. The dental restoration also serves as prevention from future damage to the tooth.
