Sure, you put the treatment off for a few months &#8211; you thought you had time. You knew time had run out when your tooth woke you up in the middle of the night with severe pain! Now you need a root canal in Texarkana, and here\u2019s what you can expect from the process.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Why Do I Need a Root Canal?<\/h2>\n<p>When a fracture or injury to your tooth allows decay or bacteria to reach your pulp, or nerve, you\u2019ll begin to feel significant pain. This is the kind of pain you can\u2019t ignore, and you shouldn\u2019t because it\u2019s likely indicating that your tooth is infected. If you act quickly, a root canal may be able to preserve your tooth. If your infection is left untreated, it will progress and could potentially lead to tooth loss.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Root Canal Therapy?<\/h2>\n<p>During <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colgate.com\/en\/us\/oc\/oral-health\/procedures\/root-canals\/article\/illustrations-root-canal-treatment-from-start-to-finish\" target=\"_blank\">root canal therapy<\/a>, our dentist will remove the infected tissues within your tooth through a small access hole in the top. After the infection has been completely removed, we\u2019ll seal the top of your tooth with a temporary filling and allow it time to heal. Once your tooth is healed, you\u2019ll return to Pleasant Grove Family Dentistry to have it restored with a permanent filling or crown, which will add strength and longevity back to your tooth.<\/p>\n<h2>Does a Root Canal Hurt?<\/h2>\n<p>At Pleasant Grove Family Dentistry, your comfort is our top priority, and we\u2019ll do everything we can to ensure that your root canal goes smoothly.

For example, if our doctors recommend a dental filling or crown for you, being proactive and getting the treatment done right away will protect your tooth from the decay progressing any further and causing more costly and invasive treatment.
