Symptoms that You May Need a Root Canal Near You

As mentioned, one of the most common symptoms indicating the need for root canal therapy is pain. That discomfort can be defined further by the detail listed below. If you notice one or more of the following symptoms and would like to receive a quick and accurate diagnosis and treatment, please call our office for a root canal consultation now.

  • Moderate to severe pain that lingers or intensifies over some time.
  • Sharp pain or discomfort when chewing or biting down on a tooth.
  • Bubble-type growth on your gum around the painful tooth.
  • The pain you are experiencing seems to radiate into nearby teeth.

When you visit our dentists near you at SND Family Dental for your examination, you’ll notice that we use the best technology to ensure that the diagnosis you receive is accurate.

Our goal is to provide accurate diagnosis and quick treatment. However, if the tooth pain you are experiencing is linked to an infection, our priority will be to reduce the level of infection through antibiotics. Most patients who require pre-procedure antibiotic treatment notice relief from their initial pain within a short time. Once the infection has been reduced, your root canal therapy can begin.
