Root Canal Therapy in St.
Louis, 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.
