Dr. Kevin Lee provides comfortable and stress-free root canal treatment at our Brea, CA, dental office. If you have a tooth infection, we can promptly eliminate your pain and preserve your natural tooth with root canal treatment.
When Would I Need a Root Canal?
Tooth infections are typically the result of a severely cracked or fractured tooth or a tooth that has had decay enter its nerve.
A tooth infection causes severe discomfort, the kind that keeps you up at night or from being able to complete your normal daily activities. Root canal treatment immediately eliminates this discomfort, clears out your dental infection, and gets you back to wellness.
What Happens During Root Canal Treatment in Brea?
During your root canal, Dr. Lee carefully removes the infected tissue from inside your tooth, clearing it until it's infection-free and sealing it with a temporary filling to allow it to heal.
He starts the procedure by numbing your tooth with the best dental anesthetics to ensure you don't feel anything, eliminating discomfort. Then, he uses flexible, electric hand tools that make the procedure comfortable and efficient.
When your tooth has completely healed, you'll return to Brea Premier Dentistry to have your tooth rebuilt and strengthened with a dental crown.
