If you're experiencing considerable pain that doesn't go away with over-the-counter medication, your tooth is likely infected. Unfortunately, tooth infections won't resolve without treatment. But the good news is that a root canal in Seymour, TN, will alleviate your pain, eliminate your tooth infection, and preserve your natural tooth, helping you avoid tooth extraction. 

What Happens during Root Canal Treatment?

Our skilled dentists will delicately remove the compromised tissue from your tooth during a root canal, ensuring it's thoroughly cleaned and infection-free. The tooth is then sealed with a temporary filling, all done with your comfort in mind. 

Our dentists use electric rotary endodontic tools made of flexible nickel titanium, which makes reaching the inner canals of your tooth quicker and more comfortable. 

Once your tooth has fully healed, you'll return to Seymour Dental Associates. Our dentists will then fortify your tooth with a permanent crown or filling, ensuring you regain all the chewing function you had before your tooth infection. You can be confident that your tooth will be as good as new.
