Root Canals

If you are suffering from persistent tooth pain or have been diagnosed with a dental abscess, you may need a root canal to restore the health of your mouth. Our gentle root canal therapy is designed to eliminate the infection and renew your smile.

Dental Arts of Mountain View offers the best root canal treatments near Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Palo Alto, and beyond because we offer holistic techniques that take into account your total body health!

If you are nervous about your root canal, or if you have special healthcare needs that could make this procedure uncomfortable, let us know. We’ll offer you a safe sedation dentistry option to make for a stress-free, efficient procedure!

Root canal treatment is performed to remove infected areas of the soft, inner section of the tooth, also known as the pulp. When these areas becoming infected, you could experience significant pain and, even worse, encounter a dangerous infection that could spread to other parts of the body.

At Dental Arts of Mountain View, we have all of the latest diagnostic imaging tools to spot an infected pulp before it causes serious damage. Always attend your regular bi-yearly exams and come in for emergency exams, when needed, and your root canal treatments will be simple and successful.

Once our doctors treat the infection, they will seal the tooth using a custom dental crown. We offer CEREC® same-day dental crowns at our Mountain View dental office, a service that allows us to provide the entire procedure in one appointment instead of two!

Do I Need a Crown After a Root Canal?

You don’t always need a crown after a root canal. Sometimes it can be sealed with a filling, which is determined by the dentist. If more than half of the tooth is gone, a crown should be placed to restore the tooth’s structural integrity.

How Much Does a Root Canal Cost?

Your total root canal cost may depend on a range of factors, including:

• Your current oral health and if you require any preliminary procedures
• The type of dental crown selected
• If sedation dentistry is selected

At Dental Arts of Mountain View, we are committed to providing gentle root canal treatment at fair and honest prices. After a thorough consultation, our dentists will develop a custom treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, along with a price breakdown.

If you have any questions about the process, feel free to call us.
