We know what you’re thinking, “If I have to have a root canal treatment, make sure I’m knocked-out cold before the procedure.” While there are numbing agents that we offer to keep the procedure as comfortable as possible, there’s no getting away from needing a root canal, especially if there’s a cavity that has imbedded itself so deep that it’s destroyed the tooth from the inside out. There’s always the alternative – you could forgo treatment altogether. This is a very, very, very bad idea. Electing not to receive treatment for an infection is just plain dumb. Infections can spread throughout your mouth and can even be fatal. We like you. We want you to be around for a long time, and one way to do that is by getting a root canal. Our Irving, TX office houses one of the best dental teams in the DFW area, not to mention experienced and friendly dentists. Root canal therapy shouldn’t be thought of as a frightening procedure, but one that’s meant to rid your mouth of infections that could take a turn for the worse. It’s time to dispel the fear of the root canal, Irving. It’s the best endodontic therapy Irving residents can choose.
