Where technology and dentistry come together.

Root Canals

Tooth pain is one of the most common reasons why people visit the dentist. Things are no different with us! The dental office of Austin R. Smith III, DDS also receives a good number of patients troubled by severe toothache and looking for fast and lasting respite from their suffering.

Quite often, this is due to a badly infected tooth and calls for root canal treatment whereby the inflamed nerves and damaged tissue pulp inside the tooth are removed. After filling the cavity with medicated material, a dental crown is fitted to restore natural look and functioning of the infected tooth.

We offer root canal treatment in Lacey, WA to bring patients relief from persistent tooth pain. Also known as endodontic treatment, a root canal procedure is usually indicated when there is:

  • Extreme sensitivity to hot and cold

  • Pain on chewing or biting down on the tooth

  • Swelling around the tooth

Root Canal Treatments

It is very important to have dental problems addressed as soon as possible. You should not postpone consulting a dentist until tooth pain becomes unbearable. The negligence and delay can potentially result in the loss of your tooth, forcing you to spend on options like implants.

Come to us for root canal treatment in Lacey if decay due to poor oral hygiene or trauma from a forceful blow has led to infection in the pulp chamber of your tooth. This procedure is the ideal solution if your infected tooth is otherwise still strong and it is possible to:

  • Avoid tooth extraction

  • Save the original or natural tooth

  • Eliminate risk of damage to the remaining tooth

We strive to provide immediate appointments for root canal treatment to Lacey residents so that they do not have to wait long for complete toothache relief.
