Root Canal Therapy in Worcester

We are going to take care of you, be gentle, and listen to your concerns. Today’s root canal is not your grandmother's root canal. A root canal at Main Street Endodontics is always completed under an operating microscope, guided by 3D imaging, informed by the latest literature, and disinfected by laser assisted irrigation and ultrasonic activation. Dr. Ivy will take time to explain a root canal procedure in detail and answer any of your questions. Simply, the root(s) of your tooth is built like a pencil. The hard part of the root is the pencil wood and the canal is the graphite. The canal is filled with nerves and blood vessels. When these nerves and blood vessels are infected or inflamed, a small hole is made in your tooth to access the root(s). The contents of the canal are removed using small files and the canal space is filled with a biocompatible rubber material.
