At Kona Coast Dental Care, we use modern techniques to make your root canal treatment as smooth as possible. Our advanced technology includes digital X-rays and a 3-D cone beam CT scanner, both of which give us detailed images of your teeth, roots, and bone.

Our experienced team will guide you through every step of the root canal process, ensuring your comfort and understanding. As many patients are nervous about having a root canal procedure performed, your dentist will ensure you feel at ease and can offer blankets and pillows to help you relax. Here’s what you can expect during your procedure:

  • Our team will take detailed images of your tooth.
  • We will use a local anesthetic to numb the area around the tooth.
  • Your dentist will clean out the infected pulp.
  • Your dentist will shape and repair the root canals.
  • We will fill the canals with a special rubber-like material.
  • Your tooth will be sealed to prevent reinfection.

After your root canal, we usually recommend placing a custom crown on the treated tooth. This crown will protect your tooth from further damage, restore your tooth’s strength and function, and match the color of your natural teeth.

Common Questions About Root Canals
Why have a root canal?

Root canals are needed when the pulp inside the tooth becomes diseased. This can happen either when a cavity goes untreated and infection spreads to the pulp, or when a tooth undergoes some sort of trauma that allows bacteria inside. In either case, we can usually save the tooth with root canal treatment.

Are root canals painful?

While they have that reputation, most patients find a root canal no more uncomfortable than receiving a filling. The procedure eliminates pain; it doesn’t cause it! We’ll numb your mouth with local anesthesia so you don’t feel pain.

How much does a root canal cost?

Treatment costs can vary greatly for a root canal, so you will need to come in for an initial exam and imaging before we can give you a cost for your particular procedure. For your convenience, we do offer several flexible payment options, including financing through a third party.
