What Happens During a Root Canal?
The full root canal process typically take place over the course of two appointments, but because our team provides same-day dental crowns, which we can craft in-office, we can complete the procedure and restoration in a single visit. First, one of our skilled dentists will access the inner portion of the tooth to remove the infected pulp and sanitize the tooth’s chamber. Our team will then restore its structure by filling it with a substance called gutta percha, before taking a digital impression of the tooth. We’ll use the impression to design and mill a customized, beautiful dental crown within about two hours, which we can then place right then and there.
