Description
  • Gentle, fast and quiet procedure
  • By using a high-tech rotary instrument rather
    than traditional hand tools, can quickly and
    efficiently clean an infected root canal. Rotary
    hand instruments are also smooth and quiet. They
    dont emit the discomforting loud, grinding
    sounds that hand tools often do.
  • This electric hand tool, combined with Dr.
    Alexanians gentle approach, training and
    experience, makes root canal treatment a much
    more comfortable experience for our patients.

  • A root canal is a pulp-filled cavity or two
    cavities in the root of a tooth. Root canal
    treatment is performed to save a tooth when decay
    has destroyed, or is likely to damage the tooth
    root. Prompt treatment helps prevent the spread
    of infection to other teeth and provides relief
    from pain.
  • Dr. Alexanians will gently remove the infected
    pulp, clean and disinfect the root chamber, and 
    insert a composite resin to replace the pulp. A
    tooth is often capped with a crown after a root
    canal to provide additional protection.Saving
    your natural tooth is important to maintaining
    your ability to chew and bite normally, to keep
    adjacent teeth from shifting and to provide
    stimulation for bone growth.

Root canal therapy is required when a tooth is
infected or damaged (1). The top of the tooth is
opened up to access the canals (2), pulp and
nerve tissue are removed and the canals are
cleaned (3), then the canals are sealed and the
tooth is filled or covered with a crown

  • Ensuring your comfort
  • If you are anxious about dental treatment, Dr.
    Alexanians offers several types of sedation to
    ensure that you are comfortable and relaxed
    throughout the procedure. Dr. Alexanians is a
    leader in providing IV sedation, and also offers
    oral sedation and nitrous oxide if needed.
  • Signs of needing Root Canal Treatment
  • A root canal is needed when the pulp is infected,
    which usually results in pain and possibly an
    abscess. Other symptoms include
  • Tenderness at the bottom of the root
  • Swelling along the gum line
  • Pain in response to heat and cold that lasts
    several minutes
  • A tooth that hurts to bite on
  • Spontaneous pain from no apparent trigger
