Root Canal in Daphne, AL

Root canal therapy is an effective approach to dealing with damaged or deteriorated teeth. Unlike traditional dental fillings, which are used to treat decay in the outer layers of the tooth, root canal treatments address infection or damage on the inside of the tooth, restoring its health and strength so you can chew and smile with confidence. Using the latest technologies and methods, our team at Eastern Shore Endodontics offers comprehensive endodontic care, including root canal treatments, for patients in and around Daphne, AL. Led by Dr. Tres Manasco, a root canal specialist who has performed thousands of procedures over the course of his career, we specialize in helping patients find relief from dental discomfort. Schedule a consultation at Eastern Shore Endodontics today to learn more about our advanced approach to root canal therapy.

We perform root canal treatments at our Daphne, AL office using local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. If you have special considerations (like dental anxiety), we also offer nitrous oxide sedation to help you stay relaxed without putting you to sleep. After the anesthesia is administered, Dr. Manasco will create a small opening in the tooth to gain access to the inner pulp chamber, where the nerves and blood vessels are found. He'll clean this area to remove signs of dental infection before sealing it off with a temporary crown to prevent further damage. The process usually takes 1 – 2 hours and is generally comfortable, thanks to the anesthesia. Afterward, you may have some mild discomfort, which can be managed with ibuprofen or other over-the-counter medicines. Full root canal recovery can take several days to weeks, depending on the severity of the damage. Once the tooth has healed, you'll return to your regular dentist, who will finish your treatment with a permanent crown or restoration.

Root canal treatment offers several key benefits, making it an effective way to save a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted. Some of these benefits include:

  • Can help save a decayed tooth from extraction
  • Prevents the spread of dental infection
  • Restores the structure and strength of the tooth
  • Alleviates tooth pain
  • Minimizes the need for more complex treatments

I was pleasantly surprised with the procedure and recovery from a recent root canal. Everything was satisfactory.

I had originally an appointment a week out and my tooth was killing me. They squeezed me in the next day and did 2 root canals. Dr talked me through each step and called and check on me the same day. I have no pain now. The office staff was amazing and welcoming.

If having a root canal could be a pleasant experience, this was it! It was pretty quick and painless and Dr. Tres called to check on me that evening to make sure all was still going well. I highly recommend!
