Previously, the solution to teeth with damaged roots or infection was extraction. Fortunately, these teeth can now often be saved by a root canal. With modern anesthetics and technology, the procedure of fixing a tooth by removing the pulp and replacing it with filling material is painless. The once-dreaded root canal has lost its anxiety factor!
No More "Fat Lips" or Numbness After Treatment!
Breathe in—breathe out, repeat—relax! Laughing gas, the more commonly known name for nitrous oxide sedation, makes treatment more comfortable. Inhaled through an over-the-nose mask, nitrous oxide medication induces a state of relaxation, which allows local anesthetic to be administered without pain. Now you don't have to fear the needle!
