ROOT CANAL THEARPY

At Beacon Dental, we’re here to protect and preserve your oral health with advanced treatments like root canal therapy and apicoectomy. These procedures help save severely damaged or infected teeth, often preventing the need for extraction and allowing you to keep your natural teeth healthy. If you or a family member is experiencing tooth pain or swelling around a tooth, contact our Winterville, NC office today. We’ll assess your needs and, if necessary, recommend root canal therapy or an apicoectomy to save your tooth.

Root canal therapy treats infections that develop within a tooth due to decay or injury. During the procedure, we remove the infected pulp from within the tooth, restoring health and function. Afterward, we cap the tooth with a custom-made crown, providing full function and preventing future damage. Thanks to our CEREC technology, we can provide your new crown on the same day!
