Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a dental operation that involves replacing the damaged or infected nerve (pulp) of a tooth with a filling. The pulp is comprised of specialized dental cells, blood vessels, tissue fibers, and nerve fibers. It is located in the central hollow region of the tooth. The process is also referred to as endodontic treatment.
Schedule an appointment with our dentist if you have any inquiries about root canal therapy.

Excellent experience with amazing results and truly wonderful staff all around! From the moment you walk into the office, you are greeted and the staff make you feel welcome and even calm the nerves. I am always so nervous when visiting dentists and the staff take the time to also explain what you are in for. I went in for a teeth whitening, something I have been so nervous about and Dr. Rhea Antolin is so calming and reassuring about the process. I could not believe how white my teeth were after one session so I decided to come back for another. You will not be disappointed with your results and the entire experience will be smooth and worth it!
Very nice and professional staff, explained everything really well.
Long story short. I’m travel through Texas had an infection in my molar and the pain was all the way up to my ear. The team did an extraction and cleaned it all out in no time at all. Pain free and back on the road.Staff was very specific with instructions for my after care. Staff made my family feel comfortable and kept them at ease with my progress.A+Facility equipment is current and cutting edge. A+Thank you guys so very much.
