Root Canal Therapy and Abscessed Teeth
When the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, Root Canal Therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, is necessary. This condition, known as an abscessed tooth, can cause severe pain and discomfort. An abscessed tooth is usually caused by bacteria entering through a small chip or crack, leading to pulp destruction. This problem can have serious consequences and may result in various side effects and future complications.
- Bitter taste in mouth and/or bad breath
- Pain when chewing
- Swelling in mouth and neck
- Sensitivity to heat and cold
- Fever
- Loose teeth
- Tooth loss
- Shift of the remaining teeth
It is essential to protect yourself from the symptoms and issues linked to an abscessed tooth.
How Can Root Canals Help?
If you want to save a tooth from being extracted, root canal treatment may be the only option. This procedure involves removing the nerves from the root of the tooth, which can help it function properly without sensitivity. During a root canal, Dr. Young will carefully remove damaged pulp, clean the area, and seal and fill the tooth. In many cases, a crown is placed on the tooth to provide additional support. With root canal therapy, an infected tooth can be saved and remain healthy for years to come. Contact us to schedule a same-day appointment for emergency root canal treatment.
I recently had a root canal done by Dr. Young and he did an excellent job. The procedure was painless and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great dentist. Dr. Young is truly awesome.

Will I Be Able to Afford Root Canal Costs?

Even though I was a nervous wreck with the drill and possibly always will be, I want to thank you for appreciating my concerns with the anesthetic and making every effort to make sure I was numb and comfortable. Your office and staff are to be commended not only for their professionalism but for their warmth as well. Your practice appears to be a unique one which I get the impression you strive to accomplish. You may look forward to referrals coming your way from my end. I believe I’ve found a permanent dentist office to hang my hat…
