Relieve Pain, Save Your Natural Tooth & Restore Your Health
If you're experiencing persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, or swelling around a tooth, you might need a root canal. At Smile Studio Dental in Denver, we provide gentle, effective root canal therapy designed to relieve pain and preserve your natural tooth—so you can smile, eat, and speak with confidence again.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a restorative dental procedure that treats the inside of a tooth when the pulp (the soft tissue inside) becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental procedures.
Rather than removing the tooth, a root canal cleans and disinfects the interior, then seals and strengthens it to restore full function.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
What to Expect During Your Root Canal
Root canals have come a long way—with modern techniques and gentle care, the experience is often no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Here's what your visit will look like:
Diagnosis & Digital Imaging
We use low-radiation digital X-rays to assess the tooth and confirm the need for treatment.
Comfort First
We fully numb the area, and offer sedation options if you’re feeling nervous. Your comfort is always our priority.
Cleaning & Disinfection
The infected pulp is removed, the canals are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, and the space is filled with a biocompatible material.
Restoration
Most root canal-treated teeth will need a custom crown to protect and strengthen them. We’ll ensure your final restoration blends beautifully with your smile.
