ROOT CANAL THERAPY
ROOT CANAL THERAPY IN MCKINNEY, TX
Root canal therapy is a dental procedure used to save a tooth that is badly decayed, damaged, or infected. At Procare Dental Studio, we provide Root Canal Therapy in McKinney, TX by removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, and sealing it to prevent future infection. This treatment helps preserve the natural tooth structure and restore normal chewing and comfort. We also serve patients from Frisco and Prosper, TX who need gentle and effective root canal care.
Root canal therapy is primarily performed to relieve severe tooth pain caused by deep infection or inflammation. By treating the source of discomfort, it allows patients to keep their natural tooth instead of having it extracted. Modern techniques make the treatment comfortable and efficient, allowing the tooth to function normally again once restored.

PROCEDURE OF ROOT CANAL THERAPY IN MCKINNEY, TX
The procedure starts with an examination and X-rays to assess the tooth’s condition. At Procare Dental Studio, we provide Root Canal Therapy in McKinney, TX, where local anesthesia is used to numb the area before a small opening is made in the tooth to access the pulp chamber. The infected pulp and nerve tissue are removed using special instruments, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and shaped. The canal is then filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha and sealed. In most cases, a crown is placed afterward to protect and strengthen the tooth for long-term function.
