Persistent tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling could be signs of an infection deep inside your tooth. Our Palm Bay root canal therapy is designed to remove the infection, relieve discomfort, and preserve your natural tooth — all with gentle, effective care in a comfortable setting.
Root canal therapy is a dental procedure that treats infections within the soft inner tissue (pulp) of the tooth. When decay, trauma, or cracks allow bacteria to reach the pulp, the tooth becomes inflamed and painful. Root canal treatment removes the damaged tissue, disinfects the canals, and seals the tooth to prevent further infection.
Common symptoms that may indicate the need for root canal therapy:
Sharp or lingering tooth pain
Sensitivity to hot or cold
Gum swelling or tenderness near a tooth
Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
Pain when biting or chewing
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, our Palm Bay dental team can help determine if a root canal is needed.
Root canal treatment can save your natural tooth and prevent the need for extraction. The procedure is quick, comfortable, and highly effective with modern techniques.
Key benefits include:
Stops infection and eliminates pain
Preserves your natural tooth
Restores full function for chewing and speaking
Prevents spreading infection or abscess
Long-term protection with a dental crown
With proper care, a tooth treated with root canal therapy can last a lifetime.
Diagnosis & Imaging – We take X-rays to evaluate the extent of infection and confirm treatment.
Access & Cleaning – A small opening is made to remove the infected pulp, and the canals are thoroughly cleaned.
Filling & Sealing – The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection.
Tooth Restoration – In most cases, a crown is placed on the tooth to restore strength and appearance.
Our Palm Bay root canal treatment is designed to be as smooth and stress-free as possible.
