Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is endodontic treatment used to remove inflamed or infected tissue from inside a tooth and help preserve the natural tooth when it can be restored.
Symptoms such as lingering temperature sensitivity, biting pain, swelling, or deep decay may indicate that the pulp inside a tooth is inflamed or infected. During treatment, the doctor cleans and disinfects the canal space, then seals it so your general dentist can complete the final restoration.
Every case starts with diagnosis. Green Mountain Endodontics reviews symptoms, radiographs, and clinical testing before recommending treatment.
Diagnosis first
Testing and imaging help confirm which tooth is causing symptoms and whether root canal therapy is appropriate.
Comfort-focused care
The office explains the process, answers questions, and works to make treatment as comfortable and straightforward as possible.
After treatment
Your general dentist usually completes the permanent restoration after endodontic treatment.
