Regular dental visits are essential to prevent dental diseases, including pulpitis. Pulpitis is a painful inflammation of the tooth’s pulp, often caused by untreated cavities. At Boynton Dental Care, we provide quality treatment to address pulpitis and its complications.
Root Canal Cost:
The price of a root canal procedure can vary based on factors such as the severity of the issue, the tooth affected, and the location. Generally, the cost ranges from $900 to $1,200 in the US. For accurate cost information, contact Boynton Dental Care directly.
Symptoms and Possible Complications of Pulpitis:
Symptoms include tooth pain, increased sensitivity, and throbbing pain. If left untreated, pulpitis can lead to tooth loss and progress to periodontitis, a more challenging condition to treat.
Diagnostics and Treatment:
We use careful diagnostics, including X-rays, to accurately determine the form of pulpitis and prescribe the appropriate treatment. Our modern techniques and equipment ensure effective pain relief and treatment. Root canal-treated teeth are often recommended to be covered with a crown for added protection.
How Long Does a Root Canal Take?
A root canal procedure typically takes 30 minutes to an hour per session, and most cases require one to two sessions. Complex cases may need additional sessions.
- Root canal treatment aims to save an infected tooth by removing the affected pulp and nerve and sealing the tooth's interior.
- Modern technology and anesthesia have made root canals comfortable, similar to getting a filling.
- After the treatment, some tooth sensitivity is normal, and the tooth can last a lifetime with proper care.
- At Boynton Dental Care, patient comfort and satisfaction are our priorities. We use the latest technology for high-quality and comfortable experiences.
