 When
Dr. Whalen says
you need a root canal, that's actually good news. It means they can save
your tooth, instead of extracting it.
The procedure is not painful, as you may have
heard. At Richard W Whalen DDS we will numb the tooth so you won't feel any pain, and there is little
discomfort afterwards. Extracting the tooth would be less healthy and more
expensive.
Repairing the root canal is the way Dr. Whalen can save the entire tooth.
The other alternative is to pull the tooth entirely. However, leaving that
space empty may create other problems, like making chewing and biting more
difficult. Teeth may also shift their position if missing teeth are not
there to hold the space.
If you decide to have the dentist pull the tooth and replace it with a
denture or bridge, the cost will be significantly more than the cost of a
root canal.
Dr. Richard W Whalen is a Hyde Park root canal dentist and has a great deal of experience in
