At Lumin8 Dentistry, we understand that the thought of undergoing a root canal procedure can be daunting for many patients. However, rest assured that under the expert care of Dr. Jun Carrington and our compassionate team, root canal therapy at our Lakewood, WA office is performed with precision, efficiency, and a commitment to your comfort. Root canal therapy is a procedure used to treat and save a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged due to decay, trauma, or other factors. During the procedure, Dr. Carrington carefully removes the infected or damaged tissue from inside the tooth, including the pulp and nerve, before thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the root canal space. Once the canal is cleaned and shaped, it is filled with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection and restore the tooth’s strength and integrity. Contrary to common misconceptions, root canal therapy is not a painful procedure. In fact, it is designed to alleviate the pain and discomfort caused by an infected or damaged tooth. With the use of local anesthesia and advanced techniques, our team ensures that you remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire procedure. Additionally, sedation options are available for patients who may feel anxious or apprehensive about undergoing root canal therapy.
