Root Canals
Root Canals: A Simple Solution for Tooth Pain
If you need a root canal, there’s no need to worry—modern procedures are as comfortable as a dental filling. A root canal is the best way to relieve pain, save a damaged tooth, and preserve your natural smile. At Long Island Smile Design, we use advanced technology to provide gentle, precise care, ensuring your comfort and oral health are our top priorities.
An effective way to preserve your natural smile
With a demonstrated success rate of well over 90%, root canal procedures remain the most effective way of saving and retaining a tooth that has been severely compromised by dental decay or injury. Because having a healthy natural dentition supports your oral health and overall well-being, root canal therapy, as opposed to having the involved tooth extracted, is a routine and widely recommended procedure. Across the United States alone, root canal procedures are routinely performed almost 41,000 times daily and close to 15 million times per year.
