What Is Root Canal Therapy?

Our team performs root canal treatment to remove infected areas of the soft, inner section of the tooth, also known as the pulp. These infected areas can cause significant pain, and when left untreated, can even cause the entire tooth to die. Gentle pediatric root canals can help save your child's tooth, allow for proper healing, and strengthen the tooth even further!

At Rock Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Rubin works to determine when root canal therapy is needed early on — before oral infection has a chance to spread through the bloodstream.

After the infection has been treated, your child's affected tooth will be topped off with a bright, durable, natural-looking dental crown. At Rock Pediatric Dentistry, we use advanced technology to provide little ones with same-day dental crowns. Each custom pediatric crown restoration is crafted in-house on the very same-day as the root canal - no temporary crown or followup appointment needed!

Does My Child Need A Root Canal?

If your little one is experiencing the following symptoms, Dr. Rubin will use specialized diagnostic tools to determine if root canal therapy is right for you:

• Tender, swollen gums
• Pain and tooth sensitivity
• Dental abscess
• Sharp pain when chewing or biting down

These signs can indicate that decay has reached the pulp of the child's tooth, resulting in infection or an abscess inside the tooth or at the root. In this case, root canal therapy may be an essential step in protecting your child's oral health as they continue to grow.

How Much Does A Root Canal Cost?

Your out-of-pocket pediatric root canal costs may vary, depending on the terms of the dental insurance used. To make it easier for our patients, our office is in-network with many major dental insurance carriers.
