Care That Often Goes Along With Root Canal Therapy

A root canal is usually one part of fixing a tooth. These are the treatments Pico Rivera patients ask about most.

Root Canal

Root canal treatment clears infected pulp out of a tooth and seals it so you can keep chewing on it. It fits when the tooth is still strong enough to rebuild.

Dental Crowns

A tooth that has had a root canal is often covered with a crown to protect it from cracking. If enough healthy tooth is left, a filling may be all it needs.

Emergency Dentist

Swelling, or pain that keeps you up at night, is a reason to call. Emergency patients can typically be seen the same day. A tooth that is only a little sensitive can wait for a regular exam.

Tooth Extraction

Some teeth are split too deep or broken down too far to save. Then removal can be the better plan, and we show you why on your images.

Tooth Problems a Root Canal Can Treat

Each of these can reach the pulp inside a tooth. An exam and X-rays tell us which one you’re dealing with.

A Cavity That Reached the Nerve

Decay that is left alone keeps going deeper. Once it gets to the soft pulp in the center of the tooth, a filling alone usually can’t fix the problem.

A Cracked or Broken Tooth

A crack can let bacteria into the pulp even when the tooth looks fine from the outside. Biting on hard food is a common way it starts.

An Abscessed Tooth

An infection at the end of the root can bring swelling or a bad taste. It needs attention soon, even if the pain fades for a while.

Decay Under an Old Filling or Crown

Older work can leak at the edges, and decay can spread underneath where you can’t see it. By the time it hurts, it may have reached the pulp.

A Tooth Hurt in an Accident

A hit to the mouth can damage the pulp even when the tooth doesn’t break. Any tooth that feels different after a fall is worth having checked.

Imaging and Crowns Made for Your Tooth

Our office has cone-beam CT (CBCT) 3D imaging, intraoral cameras and multiple digital scanners, so we can show you the tooth we’re talking about.

After the root canal, custom ceramic crowns are made for your tooth by our dental technicians using high-quality materials.
