One Visit Root Canal Therapy

Thanks to the newest laser and rotary instrumentation, dentists can now complete a root canal in one visit. New techniques have greatly reduced the time needed to perform a root canal, and also greatly limited the potential for discomfort. The term ''root canal” comes from cleaning the canals inside a tooth’s root. Decades ago, root canal treatments often were unpleasant. With dental advances and local anesthetics, 98% of people have no discomfort with a root canal. In fact, it’s probably more painful living with a decayed tooth. If you’re in Baton Rouge, root canal specialists at College Family Dentistry can ease your pain.
