Endo-Asleep
Root Canals Under General Anesthesia
Root canal treatment is necessary when decay will likely damage or has already killed a tooth. During a root canal, the pulp from the center of a tooth is removed and the resulting pulp cavity is filled with other material. This can prevent the development of a painful infection in the pulp that may spread to other teeth. A root canal can also treat an infection that has developed into an abscessed tooth. This procedure can relieve toothache, stop infection, and promote healing.
What is "Endo-Asleep?"
Endo-Asleep is the term we use to describe an endodontic procedure, such as a root canal, performed under sedation or anesthesia.
