Expert Root Canal Care At Riccobene In Fort Mill, SC

With advanced technology and a gentle approach, we offer root canal care done by our expert team in Fort Mill, SC, serving the entire family.

What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure that removes infected pulp to save the natural tooth and prevent further damage. If you experience pain and sensitivity, you might benefit from a root canal. It relieves pain and preserves your tooth.

When Do You Need a Root Canal?

You will benefit from a root canal if you experience: persistent tooth pain, swollen or tender gums, sensitivity to hot or cold, pain when chewing or biting, or infection. Through a comprehensive exam and digital X-rays, your dentist will confirm if a root canal is the right treatment for you.

How Does a Root Canal Procedure Work?

The root canal procedure follows a clear, comfortable process:

  1. Exams and X-rays
  2. Local anesthesia for pain-free treatment
  3. Thorough cleaning of the canal to remove the infected pulp
  4. Sealing the tooth to prevent reinfection
  5. Crown placement to restore functionality
Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?

Modern root canal treatment is comfortable and stress-free thanks to advanced anesthesia. Most patients say it feels similar to getting a filling. It is far less painful than living with an infected tooth.

How Much Does a Root Canal in Fort Mill Cost?

The cost of a root canal depends on the tooth location and the complexity of the infection. Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of root canal treatment, but we also offer flexible options to make it affordable. Schedule a consultation today to discuss your coverage.
