Selecting Root Dental means expert endodontic services in a soothing setting. Our holistic techniques keep patients relaxed and enable custom plans tailored to individual requirements.

Root Canal Therapy

A root canal becomes necessary when severe damage or infection affects the inner pulp of one or more teeth, reaching the root. Patients may notice pain, sensitivity, or infection signs near the tooth, though routine X-rays sometimes reveal silent issues. The dentist drills a tiny access hole to clean and medicate the infected root canals inside, preserving your natural tooth and avoiding implants.

Despite its reputation, root canal therapy feels nearly painless with advanced anesthetics. Dr. Grothe prioritizes comfort during procedures, helping patients retain their teeth while returning to pain-free daily life.

Cracked Tooth Restoration

A cracked tooth typically stems from trauma or infection, leading to pain and unease. While obvious fractures draw attention, minor ones may stay hidden until worsening enough for intervention. Untreated over time, they decay further, potentially necessitating extraction or major surgery.

At Root Dental, our CBCT x-ray provides a 3D skull scan. This reveals hidden cracks invisible on standard or panoramic x-rays.

Traumatic Injuries

Traumatic injuries can result from car or sporting accidents, a fall, or other events that involve injury to the face and mouth. These impact injuries generally require dental surgery afterward to repair, remove, or correct the affected teeth. The doctors at Root Dental have the expertise needed to fix your teeth in the event you suffer a traumatic injury resulting in cracked, dislodged, or avulsed teeth.

For the best chances at saving a tooth damaged by a traumatic event, contact us as soon as possible following the injury. We will carefully evaluate your situation and present you with the options that best fit your needs.
