Root Canal Treatment Arlington Heights
Targeting the Root of Your Infection & Pain
Comfort-focused dentistry is what we provide at Arlington Smiles Dental Studio, so if it’s recommended that you receive root canal treatment, do not be afraid. While this restorative service is viewed by many as a painful procedure, this is a myth – one that Dr. Seredynski and our team are here to debunk. Not only is root canal treatment safe and pain-free but it is designed to target the root problem – the source of the discomfort – which is infection. Without this type of care, the only solution would be tooth extraction. If you think you may have a tooth that requires root canal treatment, make sure to call our office to schedule an examination.

What Happens During a Root Canal?
Dr. Seredynski will begin by providing you with local anesthesia. This will numb areas of your mouth so that you do not feel any pain during the appointment. Once you are comfortable and ready to begin, he will prevent moisture from reaching the surgical space by using a dental dam to cover all areas of the mouth except for the affected tooth.
After making a small hole in the crown, he will begin to clear out the root canals and pulp chamber, removing all damaged tissues and infected pulp. He will then sanitize the interior of the tooth in preparation for the gutta-percha, which fills the space once occupied by the pulp and helps maintain the structural integrity of the tooth.
A filling will then be placed to seal off the area from any potential reinfection, and after a few weeks, a customized dental crown will be placed over the tooth so that it can strengthen over time.
