If you’re experiencing intense tooth pain, it’s possible that the nerve or pulp at the center of your tooth has become infected or inflamed due to tooth decay or injury. In such cases, a root canal treatment may be necessary.

The thought of a root canal treatment may sound daunting, but it’s a vital procedure that can save your tooth from being lost. There’s no need to worry, as our highly skilled and experienced endodontist, Dr. Maria Hernandez, will make sure you’re comfortable throughout the entire process.

Dr. Hernandez has completed advanced postgraduate training and is well-versed in treating even the most complex cases. She approaches every patient with kindness and compassion.

During the procedure, the infection in the root is cleared using specialized equipment. The root canal is then thoroughly cleaned and sealed to prevent further infection. A crown may be placed over the tooth to provide additional support. We use local anesthesia to ensure that you feel no pain during the procedure. Additionally, we offer sedation services for those who may be anxious about the procedure.

Don’t let fear keep you from seeking the treatment you need. Contact us today to schedule an appointment with Dr. Hernandez and take the first step towards saving your tooth.
