Are you experiencing severe jaw pain or toothache? One reason could be tooth decay, which when left untreated causes severe pain and damage to the inner tooth surface. Inside each tooth is a network of blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. If damaged, it can become infected. Root canal therapy in Mississauga is a reliable and comfortable restorative procedure performed to help you heal from infection and avoid the need for an extraction. Let's try to save your tooth.

Endodontic Procedure
Dr. Caminschi, lead dentist at Caminschi Family Dentistry Mississauga, performs simple and complex root canal therapy in Mississauga. After numbing the tooth, a tiny hole is drilled into the tooth, after which the infected pulp is carefully removed and replaced with a special filler that helps maintain the remaining tooth surface. After approximately one week of healing, we recommend you return for the placement of a filling or crown to restore and protect the tooth from further damage.
