Wexford Root Canal Dentist

30+ years of comfortable endodontic treatment

Stop infection, save your tooth

Our teeth go through a lot. Sometimes decay goes untreated for too long and causes infection in the nerve of your tooth. This can be really uncomfortable! A root canal is the best way to stop the pain and save your tooth from extraction. Our Wexford root canal dentists make the process more efficient and comfortable than you ever thought possible.

In pain? Don’t wait.

When is a root canal needed?

Your dentist is the best person to diagnose your need for a root canal, but a few signs to keep an eye out for include:

R

Constant toothache

R

Lingering tooth sensitivity

R

Sore and sensitive jawbone

R

Chipped or fractured tooth (which can lead to advanced decay and infection)

While root canals are one of the most well-known procedures in dentistry, they’re also the most misunderstood. This procedure is safe, effective, and thanks to local anesthetics and modern technology, surprisingly stress free.

We go out of our way to ensure you feel comfortable

“I’m proud to work alongside a team of dental professionals who are not only committed to excellent outcomes but patient comfort and satisfaction. You’re in good hands.”

— Dr. Michael Guthrie

About Us

What To Expect

A root canal typically takes about 60-90 minutes (though more than one appointment may be necessary in some cases). We’ll help you understand what to expect, which typically involves:

Using a local anesthetic to numb the area around the affected tooth and ensure your total comfort.

Removing infected tissue, cleaning the canal, and sealing it with a biocompatible material.

Finishing your root canal with a custom tooth-colored crown.

How much does a root canal cost?

At Wexford Family Dentistry, our goal is to help you avoid any surprises. Before scheduling your root canal therapy, we’ll outline the estimated cost. We also accept most dental insurance plans and are happy to answer any questions and help you understand your benefit coverage.

Give us a call at (724) 935-3610 with any financial concerns.
