Save the Tooth

If you’re suffering from a toothache caused by infection or injury to a tooth’s pulp, Thurmont dentist Dr. Oza will likely recommend root canal therapy to save the tooth. If a tooth is not savable, we would recommend extraction of the tooth and discuss teeth replacement options with you.

When Is Root Canal Therapy Necessary?

Many patients in Thurmont and Frederick county are concerned about root canal therapy, but Dr. Oza and the Thurmont Smiles team will take steps to help you feel more at ease. We will make sure you don’t feel anything during treatment. Our patients say “it was just like getting a cavity filled!”

Root canal treatment is recommended when the pulp in the center of the tooth becomes compromised.

A root canal procedure might be necessary in the event of:

Serious tooth decay

Fracture of the tooth, exposing the pulp

Injury to the tooth resulting in soft tissue damage

Fit Your Goals and Budget

If you begin experiencing pain, sensitivity to hot and cold, and tenderness in the gums, When left untreated, infection of the dental pulp can get worse and potentially cause an abscess to develop at the root of the tooth.

We offer a wide variety of services to fit your goals and budget including sedation, extractions, bone graft, dental implants, white-colored fillings, and natural-looking porcelain restorations. Please visit our “services” page to know other options about treatment of broken teeth, lost fillings, etc. in absence of pain.
