If you are experiencing persistent tooth pain, sensitivity or swelling, root canal therapy can provide the relief you need. This effective treatment removes infected tissue from inside your tooth, allowing you to keep your natural tooth and prevent further complications. At Chandler Dental Excellence, we perform root canal therapy with care and precision, ensuring your comfort throughout the process. Our goal is to preserve your smile and restore your oral health.
What to Expect During Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is designed to save your natural tooth by treating the infection that causes pain. During the procedure, Dr. Jared Taylor carefully removes damaged tissue from inside the tooth, cleans the area and seals it to prevent further infection. After treatment, a custom restoration will strengthen and protect the tooth, allowing you to chew and smile with confidence.
Patients often feel nervous about the idea of root canal therapy, but it is important to understand that it is a routine procedure. Thanks to modern techniques, discomfort during and after treatment is minimal, and many patients report feeling better almost immediately after the infection is treated.
Signs You May Need Root Canal Therapy

- Severe tooth pain, especially when chewing
- Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
