When Dr. Allen says you need root canal therapy, that's actually good news.  It means the tooth can be saved, instead of extracted.

The procedure is no longer painful, as you may have heard.  At Barton C Allen 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 in the long run, and definitely more painful.

Treating an infected root canal is the way Dr. Allen can save your tooth.  The other alternative is to pull the tooth entirely, which if you leave  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.
