Root Canal Therapy

Losing a tooth is an emotional decision and as a patient, you must clearly understand the oral health and cosmetic implications of preserving your natural teeth. When the nerve of your tooth becomes infected, a successful root canal treatment lets you keep the tooth rather than extracting it. Keeping your tooth helps to prevent your other teeth from drifting out of line and causing jaw problems. Saving a natural tooth avoids having to replace it with an artificial tooth.

In some cases, the best outcome occurs from extracting a tooth and replacing it with a dental implant, which looks and functions like natural teeth. Dr. Sotiroff will be happy to discuss your dental options with you.
