Endodontic Therapy
Reliable Endodontic Therapy in Michigan
Root canals have a bad reputation. The term conjures up an image of a painful procedure that you’ll be feeling the effects of in the days to come. However, root canals, or endodontic therapy, aren’t as terrifying as popular sentiment would have you believe. Smile Zone Dental is dedicated to providing root canal treatment that yields the best results with the least pain possible. In fact, most patients report endodontic therapy is nearly painless. While you might feel some discomfort, the results are well worth it. Our offices in Fort Gratiot and Monroe MI are well-equipped to provide premier endodontic therapy to each of our patients. Ask our staff your questions about root canals today.
Understand What Happens During Endodontic Therapy
What exactly happens during a root canal? To answer this question, first, we need to establish why you’d need this procedure. At Smile Zone Dental, we typically recommend endodontic therapy to repair a badly damaged tooth, usually as the result of decay, infection, or trauma. During a root canal, the inner pulp (nerves) of the tooth is removed. This prevents the tooth from becoming abscessed in the future. Once the pulp is removed, we clean and seal the tooth. If this sounds painful, don’t worry. Most dentists provide their patients with numbing medication, so they feel little to no pain and discomfort during the procedure.

To complete root canal treatment, the team at Smile Zone Dental utilizes state-of-the-art equipment. We want you to know you’re in the best hands during endodontic therapy, and part of that commitment manifests in our use of advanced technology. Our team uses the following equipment and more to achieve the best results:
- Endodontic microscopes
