Why is your tooth in pain? If it is persistently uncomfortable or painful, calling Smileology is the right decision. We can quickly relieve the pain and diagnose the problem. If a root canal treatment is needed, we can complete it and protect your tooth in just one visit to one of our offices in Niceville, Destin, or Crestview.
Some cases of tooth pain are caused by a tooth infection, often referred to as an abscess tooth. This occurs when a group of bacteria multiply inside the root canal, or inner chamber of a tooth. This can cause the tissue inside the tooth to swell, pressing on nerves there, which causes pain.
The pain itself is not the only problem. A bacterial infection inside a tooth can cause the walls of the tooth to deteriorate. Also, the infection could spread to other teeth. It can also cause:
– A fever.
– Red or swollen gums.
– Feelings of pressure in or around a tooth.
– Unusual tastes in the mouth.
– A swollen face.
It is important to stop and resolve a tooth infection in the root canal quickly. If you have any of these symptoms, including tooth pain or discomfort in a tooth, call Smileology in Niceville, Crestview, and Destin. We will provide swift treatment to relieve your tooth pain and restore your oral function as quickly as possible.
A root canal treatment helps relieve your tooth pain by removing the infection from the tooth. Your dentist will:
Our Niceville office particularly prides themselves on finishing this whole process in two hours or less! This will let you get back to normal life quickly—with that tooth protected from any further infection by a same-day CEREC dental crown.
Our modern root canal procedure is designed to be comfortable and nearly pain-free. With advanced techniques, local anesthesia, and dental sedation (if necessary), most patients say the process feels similar to getting a filling.
Common signs include persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling around the gums, or a darkened tooth. However, only a dentist can confirm the need for a root canal through an exam and x-rays.
The infected pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed, the inner chamber is cleaned and disinfected, and the space is filled and sealed. A dental crown is often placed afterward to create a protective cap that looks and functions like a real tooth.
With proper care, a tooth treated with a root canal and crown can last a lifetime. Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups are key to maintaining long-term success, so it’s important to see your dentist regularly every 6 months.
