What Happens During a Root Canal?

The process of getting a root canal typically takes place over the course of two appointments—one for the treatment itself and another for the restoration. However, if you opt for a CEREC same-day crown, we may be able to treat you in a single visit.

First, our team will create a window into the tooth to access the inner cavity where the pulp lies. We’ll remove the infected pulp and sanitize the chamber, ensuring that no bacteria linger. Then, after rebuilding the structure of the tooth with a putty called gutta percha, our team will top it off with a customized dental crown for added protection.
