ROOT CANALS

Dr. Rice and his associates at Cross Creek Dental are highly trained and experienced in performing root canal treatments! This procedure was developed to remove infected pulp from your tooth’s root, where it can cause pain to your gums and nerves. Once the infection has been carefully removed, we seal the canal to prevent reinfection and maintain the strength of your tooth. 

At your appointment, let us know if you have any of the following issues, which may indicate root canal infection:

• Chipped or cracked teeth.
• Overly-sensitive teeth.
• Swollen or sore gums.
• Darkening gums.
• Severe pain while chewing.
