Root Canal Therapy At Zoltek Advanced Dentistry

Don’t Let Tooth Pain Win—We Can Help

If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need root canal therapy. While root canals have a reputation for being unpleasant, the truth is—they relieve pain, save your natural tooth, and protect your smile. At the office of Dr. Ewa Zoltek, we use modern techniques to make your experience efficient, comfortable, and stress-free.

What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth. After cleaning and sealing the area, the tooth is restored with a filling or crown. The goal is to save the natural tooth while eliminating pain and infection.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal

• Persistent toothache or pressure
• Sensitivity to hot or cold (especially lingering)
• Swollen gums near a tooth
• Discoloration or darkening of a tooth
• A bump or pimple on the gum
• Pain when biting or chewing

These symptoms may indicate an infection in the pulp—the soft tissue inside the tooth—often caused by deep decay, cracks, or trauma.

The Root Canal Process

• Diagnosis – We perform a digital X-ray and clinical evaluation
• Numbing the Area – Local anesthesia ensures a pain-free procedure
• Cleaning & Shaping – Infected pulp is removed, and the root canals are disinfected
• Filling & Sealing – The space is filled with a biocompatible material
• Restoration – A crown or filling restores strength and appearance

Most root canals can be completed in just one or two visits, with long-term results when properly cared for.

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

• Relieves pain and infection
• Saves your natural tooth
• Preserves your bite and jaw structure
• Avoids the need for extraction
• Restores full function and appearance
