Root Canals

Root Canal Treatment
Deep cracks or trauma to teeth or other issues that lead to dental sensitivity may require a root canal. During a root canal, Dr King will carefully anesthetize the tooth, then clean, disinfect, and fill the interior of the affected tooth to prevent bacteria from entering it in the future. Then a tooth-colored dental crown is placed to restore full functionality to the tooth.
