Start Each Day With A Rewarding Smile
Root canal treatment is designed to eliminate bacteria from the infected root canal, prevent reinfection of the tooth and save the natural tooth. When you have a root canal, the inflammation or infected pulp is removed, the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and filled and sealed to save the tooth. According to the American Association of Endodontists, root canals are needed for a cracked tooth from injury or genetics, a deep cavity, or issues from a previous filling.
Think of a root canal as a very small and precise filling in a very small and tight space! Yes, it can be that simple. Painful and scary root canals of the past are simply that, the past!
The Benefits of Root Canal Therapy
Root canal treatment can save your tooth, prevents the spread of infection, and helps you maintain the health of your mouth. In some cases, the procedure can improve overall oral hygiene. Saving the tooth has a few advantages including:
- Natural appearing teeth
- Protecting your teeth from wear & staining
- Efficient chewing
- Consistent biting force and feeling

Jessica G. - Root Canal Patient
“Normally root canal and great experience do not belong in the same sentence. However, Dr. Angstadt is extremely knowledgeable and everything he does is perfectly precise.
