Root Canals

If your tooth is infected, Drs. Svetlana Gomer or Mikhail Gomer might recommend root canal therapy. Because of common misconceptions surrounding root canal treatments, many patients are intimidated by the procedure, but with today’s technology housed in our MGS Dental office, there’s really nothing to worry about.

Why Do People Need Root Canals?

A root canal treatment is a procedure that can be used to save a badly decayed, damaged, or infected tooth instead of removing it entirely. You might need to have a root canal procedure if your tooth has been broken in a way that exposes the “nerve,” if a cavity has been left untreated and the decay has reached the “nerve,” or if the “nerve” of your tooth has become infected or inflamed.
