Root canal therapy eliminates tooth pain and preserves natural teeth by treating infected or inflamed tooth pulp through modern, comfortable endodontic techniques. This essential dental procedure saves millions of teeth annually while providing immediate pain relief and preventing the need for tooth extraction in most cases.
Root canal therapy treats infection in the tooth pulp—the soft inner tissue containing nerves and blood vessels. We remove the infected nerve, eliminating pain and allowing your body to recognize the tooth as healthy again while preserving your natural tooth structure.
Modern root canal treatment at Ponce Dental Studio is comfortable and effective using advanced endodontic techniques. We ensure infections are controlled before treatment, achieving complete anesthesia so you feel no discomfort during the procedure. With proper treatment and follow-up care, your natural tooth can be preserved for a lifetime. Call our Atlanta dentists today.

One of the most common indicators you may need root canal therapy is persistent, severe pain that doesn’t resolve with over-the-counter pain relievers. This pain often intensifies when chewing or applying pressure to the affected tooth. While not all tooth pain requires a root canal, persistent discomfort should never be ignored, as it typically signals an underlying pulp infection that will worsen without professional endodontic treatment.
Does drinking hot coffee or enjoying ice cream cause sharp, lingering pain? Extreme sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, particularly when the sensation persists even after the stimulus is removed, often indicates pulp inflammation or infection. This heightened sensitivity occurs because the damaged nerves inside your tooth are becoming increasingly irritated and may require endodontic treatment to address the underlying inflammation.
Inflammation or infection within your tooth can spread to surrounding tissues, causing swelling in your gums, face, or neck. You might notice tender, swollen gums near the affected tooth or experience a small, pimple-like bump on the gum tissue—known as a dental abscess. These signs indicate that infection has progressed and requires prompt professional root canal treatment to prevent more serious health complications.
A tooth that becomes noticeably darker than surrounding teeth may indicate damage to the pulp inside. When the internal tissue becomes infected or the nerve dies, the tooth often takes on a grayish-black appearance. This discoloration typically won’t respond to whitening treatments because the problem lies within the tooth structure rather than on the surface, making root canal treatment the appropriate solution for addressing the underlying pulp damage.

Despite common misconceptions, modern root canal treatment is typically as comfortable as getting a filling. The procedure involves numbing the tooth and surrounding area, removing the infected or inflamed pulp, and thoroughly cleaning the inside of the tooth using advanced endodontic techniques. The root canals are then filled and sealed, and a crown is usually placed to protect the tooth and restore its full function.
A successful root canal treatment has many benefits: it can relieve toothache, prevent the spread of infection, save your natural tooth, preserve your natural smile, and maintain proper chewing function while avoiding the need for more extensive tooth replacement procedures.
Root canal treatment is a procedure used to save a tooth that has a deep cavity reaching the pulp or an infection in the pulp. It involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp, cleaning the inner tooth chambers with specialized endodontic instruments, and sealing them to prevent future infection while preserving your natural tooth structure.
You might need root canal treatment if you have a deep cavity, a cracked or fractured tooth, repeated dental procedures on the tooth, or an injury to the tooth that has caused damage to the pulp. These conditions can lead to pulp infection or inflammation that requires professional endodontic intervention.
The root canal procedure involves numbing the tooth and surrounding area for your comfort, removing the infected or inflamed pulp, and thoroughly cleaning the inside of the tooth using advanced techniques. The root canals are then filled and sealed with biocompatible materials, and a crown is usually placed to protect the tooth and restore its full function and appearance.
Root canal treatment can alleviate toothache and sensitivity, preserve your natural tooth structure, maintain the natural appearance of your smile, protect adjacent teeth from strain or excessive wear, and restore proper chewing function while avoiding the need for tooth extraction and replacement.
