Root canal therapy treats the center, or pulp, of a tooth that is inflamed, infected or dead. The pulp is a soft substance consisting of nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue.

Symptoms of infection include visible injury or swelling, sensitivity to temperature, or pain in the tooth and gums. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact Love Dentistry for a consultation.

Root canal therapy involves removing the pulp from the tooth chamber. Our doctors will evaluate to determine if root canal therapy is your best option. Due to the modern advancements in root canal therapy, we will refer you to a trusted specialty office for treatment if it is needed.

After treatment is completed our team will see you for a crown preparation to protect your tooth.

Root canal therapy can help preserve your tooth for a lifetime. Contact our office today for a consultation with Dr. Werremeyer.
