What Happens During Root Canal Therapy?

·         An access whole will be drilled into the core of the tooth

·         The root canal will be cleaned out and shaped

Will Root Canal Therapy Hurt?

No. The compassionate and gentle dentists at Smile By Design take every precaution to ensure that you are completely calm and comfortable during the entire procedure.
