Get rid of tooth pain and infections with root canal treatments near Dublin, OH
Root canal therapy is a restorative procedure that removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside your tooth, relieving pain and preventing the need for extraction. At Avery Dental Wellness, we use advanced techniques to gently clean and seal the tooth, preserving your natural structure while protecting it from future infection. With sedation options available, you can relax throughout the process and leave with a smile that feels healthy again.

Process of Root Canal Treatment
Diagnosis and Imaging: We begin with a thorough exam and digital X-rays to identify infection or damage in the tooth’s pulp and surrounding roots.
Local Anesthesia: Your comfort is our priority. We numb the area completely to ensure a pain-free experience during the procedure.
Pulp Removal and Cleaning: The dentist creates a small opening in the tooth to remove the infected pulp. The inner canals are then cleaned, shaped and disinfected.

What Are the Next Steps?
Sealing the Tooth: Once clean, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent future infection.
Restoration: In most cases, a dental crown is placed over the tooth to restore its strength, function and appearance.
Follow-up and Care: We schedule a follow-up visit to check healing and ensure that your tooth stays strong and symptom-free.
