Endodontic Procedures (Root Canals) in
St. Louis, MO & Florissant, MO
Hearing that you need a root canal can make some people feel
a bit uneasy. Today’s root canal therapy is comfortable
and convenient. Root canal therapy repairs and saves a tooth with
a severely damaged nerve. Usually it is the only way avoid extraction
and loss of the tooth.
When Dr. Quade performs root canal therapy, the nerve is removed,
and the inside of the tooth canal is cleaned, filled, and sealed.
Removing the nerve will not harm a mature tooth. Next, a crown
is placed on the tooth, restoring normal occlusion, or bite. Dr.
Quade handles most root canals from the convenience of our comfortable
office.
Contact our Florissant or St. Charles
dental office to schedule your consultation or second opinion
visit. To learn more about modern root canals, read the root canal
article in our library.
