Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy in Kennewick, Washington, can save your teeth and restore your oral health! Our experienced dentist at Ideal Dentistry may recommend a root canal if your teeth are infected or damaged, and in many cases this endodontic treatment is the only alternative to a tooth extraction. We will work closely with you to ensure that you are comfortable during your procedure and to create a dental crown that will help protect your tooth from further injury after your root canal is complete. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Bradley Rowe and learn more about how root canal therapy can benefit you, give us a call at 509-737-8700!

Root canals are a type of endodontic treatment recommended when the dental pulp and nerves of the tooth are infected or injured. The dental pulp can become infected or injured when decay or injury impact the innermost tissues of the tooth, reaching past the outer layer of enamel. If left untreated, this can cause the tooth to die and require an extraction. A root canal treatment is often the only alternative to a tooth extraction and is usually the preferred treatment, as it allows you to continue using your natural tooth.

When you receive a root canal, our dentist will remove the infected and injured tissues from within the tooth. We will then clean the tooth and fill it with medicated material before capping it with a dental crown to fully restore the tooth. This treatment process can usually be completed in just one or two appointments.

While root canal treatment has a reputation for being painful, the reality is that your treatment can be completed with minimal discomfort due to advances in treatment techniques, anesthesia and dental technology. Our dentist and team will do everything possible to make sure that your treatment is as comfortable as possible.
