Naperville toothache
Believe it or not, root canal will not cause you pain. It is the way to stop the pain that you have from a
Naperville toothache when that pain is the result of an infection inside your tooth. At the office of Linda Ricks, DDS, MS, PC, we're dedicated to preventing oral pain, and to treating any instance of it promptly.
You will usually become aware of the need for root canal when you experience pain, often severe, that is especially bad upon putting pressure on the tooth, or chewing with it. Another typical symptom is sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks. You might also notice tender gums or discoloration of the tooth. But when it comes down to it, there is no surer indication than a Naperville toothache. A root canal may take more than one session to complete. This depends mostly on how many canals the tooth has. Some have only one, while others have multiple canals. You will be sufficiently numbed with local anesthesia to ensure the highest degree of comfort. You should feel little or no pain during the procedure. The tooth will be drilled from the top, and then the injured pulp and nerve will be removed. The canal or canals are then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. A temporary crown or filling is placed if you have to come back for the work to be completed. But by the end of the first session, you will find your
Naperville toothache gone. And when the root canal is finished, and proper healing time is observed, you will have impressions taken for the formation of a permanent crown to restore the tooth to full size and functionality.
Oral pain should motivate you to contact our office right away. It is always better to get timely attention to it.
