Root Canal Therapy From Your Dentist in Hemet


Root canal therapy is a procedure designed to remove the infected or inflamed pulp from within a damaged or decaying tooth. Thanks to modern techniques and medications, the procedure is largely painless, helps you maintain your smile and chewing function, and because it eradicates infection that can travel throughout the face, jaw, and body, it can also prevent potentially serious health issues from developing.

Protect Your Smile with a Root Canal in Hemet

No one looks forward to a root canal treatment, but with the team at David May DDS, we provide a range of comfortable and compassionate endodontic treatment options for members of the whole family. We work with you to ensure that your root canal therapy is as seamless as possible, protecting your smile for ongoing health.

How is a root canal performed?

After anesthesia has taken effect, our dentist will remove the infected or inflamed pulp from the tooth in question before cleaning and disinfecting it. The tooth is then sealed with a material that resembles rubber and restored with a filling or a permanent crown that protects and enables it to function as it normally would.

What is the after-care procedure for Root Canal in Hemet?

For most people, recovery following root canal therapy is quick. The majority of patients report that they feel like themselves 24 to 48 hours after the procedure.

In terms of how to care for a tooth that’s received this treatment, it should receive the same brushing and flossing that natural teeth receive. Many patients will opt to have a tooth that’s undergone root canal therapy covered with a crown to strengthen and extend its longevity.
