If you’re experiencing pain, swelling, or gum tenderness, it’s important to schedule an appointment with an experienced dentist to determine if the problem is due to an issue with your root canal. These types of dental issues can happen due to a number of reasons but in the majority of cases, it’s the result of bacteria invading the pulp chamber of your tooth, causing a painful infection. If you need a root canal procedure, there’s no need to feel anxious. At Silk Dental Care, we provide our Westminster CA patients with affordable, compassionate care; Dr. Nguyen has over 20 years of experience in general dentistry and will be able to quickly and gently restore your tooth.
Why do I need This?
There are a number of issues that can cause infections or inflammation within your root canal. These include deep cavities that allow bacteria to penetrate the root of your tooth, cracked or damaged teeth, avulsed (knocked out) teeth, sterile necrosis caused by tooth concussion, tooth anatomy abnormalities, or a tooth that has undergone repeated dentistry. Regardless of the cause of the root canal infection, it’s important to have it evaluated as soon as possible to prevent further pain or complications that may require an extraction, like an abscessed tooth. Regardless of why you need a root canal, our dedicated staff will make sure you’re comfortable and at ease during the entire procedure.
We see a number of patients who need to have a root canal because they weren’t able to afford routine dental care when they were younger; we understand that financial concerns can be a roadblock for many patients. We’re committed to ensuring that our patients are always able to afford the care they need by providing top-quality care at economical prices and accepting a wide range of payment options, including Denti-Cal. We offer a complete range of services, such as teeth cleaning, extractions, fillings, crowns, dental implants, dentures, facial veneers and more.
In the past, teeth that had root canal infections needed to be extracted; thankfully, a root canal procedure allows us to effectively save and repair your tooth. We offer the procedure in-house so you won’t need to visit another office. A root canal procedure involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp and then thoroughly cleaning the tooth. Dr. Nguyen will make sure there are no underlying problems with the tooth, and then will fill it with a dental filling. This will relieve any pain you’ve been having and allow you to use your tooth normally.
We want our Westminster CA patients to have healthy, lasting smiles! Whether you need a root canal procedure or are simply interested in establishing routine care at a friendly and caring office, contact us at (714) 551-9458 to schedule your appointment!
