Treatment For an Underlying Tooth Infection

The term "root canal" alone can make one cringe. However, with Willow Cove Dental’s advanced technology and our gentle doctors on staff, root canals are now a much easier and comfortable process. 

A root canal is necessary when the nerves of a tooth have become inflamed or infected. The inflammation or infection can have a variety of causes, such as deep decay or cavities, repeated dental procedures on a tooth, or a crack or chip in the tooth. 

After the infection is cleaned out, the tooth is covered with a tooth-colored   filling   or   crown, depending on what our doctor recommends. Once the root canal process is complete, the treated tooth will function normally for years to come.

We understand that you likely will have questions about the root canal process. Our knowledgeable team is happy to answer them all! Call (920) 306-6541 today.
