Root Canal Therapy in Westchester – Relief from Pain, Restoration for Your Smile

A persistent toothache can be more than just an inconvenience—it may be a sign of a serious infection deep inside your tooth. At Westchester Family Dentistry and Implant Center, we offer gentle and effective root canal therapy to relieve pain, save your natural tooth, and restore your oral health.

What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation in the pulp—the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, trauma, or a cracked tooth, it can cause intense pain and lead to serious complications if left untreated.

Root canal therapy removes the damaged pulp, disinfects the inner tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection. With modern techniques and local anesthesia, the procedure is as comfortable as getting a routine filling.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal:

  • Severe, throbbing tooth pain
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
  • Swollen or tender gums
  • Darkening of the tooth
  • A pimple-like bump on the gum near the tooth

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t delay treatment. Root canal therapy can save your tooth and eliminate the need for extraction.

What Happens After the Procedure?
