Root Canal Therapy for Charlotte, Pineville, NC & Beyond
Your teeth play a vital role in your overall health and well-being. They allow you to express yourself and enjoy your favorite foods. However, poor oral hygiene or dental issues like cracks or cavities can allow harmful bacteria to invade, leading to infection. If left untreated, this infection can spread, damaging healthy teeth, gums, and surrounding tissues.
Fortunately, root canal therapy offers a solution to save your tooth and restore the integrity of your smile. At Carmel Commons Dental, our skilled professionals have the knowledge and tools to provide effective root canal treatments, helping you regain your oral health and confidence.
If you’re experiencing dental issues and aren’t sure whether a root canal is needed, review the following signs of an infected tooth.
Signs You May Need Root Canal Therapy
- Dental Pain
Pain deep within a tooth or radiating across your jaw, face, or other teeth could indicate an infection. Persistent or severe pain is often a sign of a serious issue. - Sensitivity to Pressure
Pain when eating, chewing, or even touching the tooth may signal nerve damage within the pulp. - Swollen Gums
Tender or swollen gums near the affected tooth can be a sign of infection. - Pimples on the Gums
Severe infections may cause small bumps or boils on the gums that release unpleasant-smelling pus. - Swollen Jaw
If pus from an infected tooth cannot drain properly, it may cause noticeable swelling in your jaw. - Loose Tooth
Untreated infections can weaken the surrounding bone, causing your tooth to feel loose and increasing the risk of tooth loss.
