Root Canals in Waldorf, MD

Save your tooth and get out of pain!

What Is a Root Canal?

A treatment used to remove pain-causing infection from inside your tooth.

If your tooth is severely decayed or has an infection, you may need root canal therapy.

A root canal treatment removes your tooth’s pulp, the soft tissue inside your tooth, to prevent infection from spreading to other parts of your body and to save the healthy parts of your natural tooth.

Common signs you need a root canal include:
  • Pain when eating or applying pressure
  • Darkening tooth color
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Tender or swollen gums

Single-Visit Root Canals

Extreme tooth pain? That's a root canal symptom!

There’s a common misconception that root canal procedures are painful. But the truth is, the infection inside your tooth is what causes severe tooth pain, which can result in an emergency root canal (and more money) if left untreated.

That’s why our restorative dentists offer complete root canal treatment in one visit. In fact, many patients state they felt immediate pain relief following the appointment.

Here’s a general overview of single-visit root canals in Waldorf, MD:

  • Numb your tooth: We’ll make sure you are comfortable and do not feel pain.

  • Remove the infection: We’ll create a small opening in your tooth to access and remove the pulp along with bacteria, decayed nerve tissue, and debris. Then we will thoroughly clean and disinfect it. There is no feeling during this process, and it’s okay to fall asleep if you get bored.

  • Fill and seal your tooth: We’ll fill your pulp chamber to prevent reinfection of your tooth. Once it’s safe, we will seal the opening.

  • Restore your tooth: In most cases, you will need a crown placed over your tooth to restore its appearance and functionality. Dr. Daniel Barakh … Click to go to the page of Dr. Daniel Barakh …  and Dr. Misha Mullen use CEREC technology to create new crowns in one appointment. It will look and feel like a natural tooth!
