How Restorative Treatment Addresses A Persistent Toothache

A toothache can feel intrusive at all times, but it can be especially hard to tolerate when you try to eat or drink. If the issue is ignored, the pain can intensify as the health of the tooth worsens. Fortunately, the matter can be addressed with the appropriate restorative dental treatment. Our Celina, TX dentist’s office is prepared to take on your problem through root canal therapy. This procedure is recommended whenever there is an issue within your tooth that needs attention. By performing the root canal, your dentist will be able to remove infected tissues and bacteria to stop your pain, and also to stop an infection from spreading further. Once this procedure has taken place, we can make plans to protect the tooth by securing it with a custom dental crown. (more…)
