At G Dental Group in Daly City, CA, we provide root canal therapy to repair and save teeth that are severely decayed or infected. While decay is a common cause of tooth damage that may necessitate a root canal, traumatic injuries can also lead to the need for this important treatment.
During a root canal procedure, your dentist will carefully remove the infected or dead nerve tissue from within the tooth. The tooth is then thoroughly cleaned and sealed to prevent further infection or the formation of an abscess. Leaving the damaged nerve untreated can cause the infection to spread deeper into the gums, resulting in increased swelling, pain, and discomfort.
If you are experiencing any dental discomfort, it is crucial not to delay seeking treatment. Contact G Dental Group today to schedule an appointment and relieve your symptoms with expert care.
