The Anatomy of a Root Canal
The words “root canal” often evoke fear in dental patients, but the dentists at Brighton Family Dental Group have some good news for you. Modern root canal therapy is less invasive, more precise, more comfortable, and more effective than in years past.
Inside each of your teeth, a canal houses dental pulp, also known as the nerve of your tooth. This pulp is extremely important. It keeps your tooth alive by bringing nutrients to the tooth, removing waste, and keeping the tooth alive and functioning.
If a deep cavity or fracture occurs in your tooth and it’s deep enough to cut into the sealed canal, your tooth pulp can become infected.
Are you a good candidate for dental implants?
A dental implant is a dental restoration used to place missing teeth. Made from a titanium implant post and crown, dental implants are designed to function and look like natural teeth, as well as fit and blend in with your natural tooth structure.
Dental implants are an ideal option for people in food general and oral health who have lost one or more teeth due to periodontal disease or an injury. Candidates for dental implants need to have healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant.
