The Benefits of Root Canal Restoration

Root canal therapy gets a bad rap. These days, dentists can provide a lot of comfort during root canal therapy, thereby reducing any pain or discomfort. Root canal therapy will also greatly improve your oral health. If you’d like to learn more about restoration root canal treatment in Evans, GA, talk with Dr. Scott Wingard, Dr. Caleb Morris, or Dr. Sherilyn Harper at Summerville Dentistry in Evans and Augusta.

Fortunately, root canal therapy is less invasive now than compared to the past. At the same time, root canal restoration offers many benefits. Let’s take a look.

The Many Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

So why should you consider root canal restoration? Often, root canal therapy is all but necessary to avoid more serious oral health issues. If the roots of your teeth and surrounding gums are infected, it could cause a lot of pain and discomfort. Worse yet, there’s a serious risk that the infection will spread, causing more aches and making treatment all the more difficult.

Through root canal restoration, it’s typically possible to treat infections and bring them under control, resulting in many benefits:

• Less risk of the infection spreading
• Long-term pain relief
• Eat and enjoy the foods and drinks you want
• Reduce the risk of smells and bad looks
• Prevent tooth loss

A pretty white smile can lead to positive, lasting impressions. Unfortunately, root infections can lead to discolored gums and teeth. And if you should lose a tooth, you’ll suffer a permanent gap in your smile, or else will have to use treatment, say getting a dental implant and crown, to cover up the gap.

If you'd like to learn about your many treatment options in Evans, GA, including restoration root canal therapy, contact Dr. Scott Wingard, Dr. Caleb Morris, or Dr. Sherilyn Harper at Summerville Dentistry in Evans and Augusta.

Root Canal Treatment is a Wise Investment

While oral health is the most important aspect of root canal therapy, it’s important to consider the financial implications as well. Root canal therapy can prevent you from having to undergo more expensive treatments. Getting a dental implant and crown, for example, often costs more than root canal restoration.

If you delay treatment and the infection spreads, another tooth may also need root canal restoration. And by addressing oral health issues quickly, you often improve outcomes.

If you believe your gums or teeth are infected, you should visit a dentist right away. It's also vital to keep regular cleaning appointments with your dentist.
