Could your toothache be warning you that you might just need root canal therapy?

Has one of our Milford, MA, dentists Dr. Peyman Beigi or Dr. Nina Raeisian told you that you need root canal treatment? If so, don’t panic. While this procedure certainly has been given a bad reputation it’s truly nothing to worry about. We are here to help ease your concerns by sharing a little more about why root canal therapy is sometimes essential for preserving your smile’s health.

One of the telltale signs that you may need a root canal is tooth pain. Ignoring your tooth pain won’t help the situation; in fact, it will often make it worse. Dental problems rarely go away on their own and most problems, if left untreated, will only cause more serious and irreversible complications.

Without root canal treatment, people will oftentimes have to have the infected or damaged tooth removed. Instead of spending more time and money to replace the tooth, why wouldn’t you just undergo a simple procedure to save your tooth?

Here at Milford Dental Group, our restorative dentists in Milford, MA, believe that preserving your real smile is the most important thing you can do. Do you think so, too? After all, nothing can really take the place of a real tooth. If left untreated, a dental infection will continue to spread throughout the tooth and tooth roots until the tooth is no longer viable. In the meantime, you’ll be dealing with some rather unpleasant and unrelenting pain.

Getting a root canal in Milford, MA, could benefit you by:

• Removing the infected dental pulp and protecting the outer structure of the tooth
• Preventing decay from getting worse
• Preventing future damage to the tooth caused by teeth grinding or jaw clenching
• Improving the shape, size, strength and even color of your tooth (thanks to a custom-made dental crown)
