That’s because Dr. Kaady uses advanced techniques and local anesthesia to keep you comfortable every step of the way.

If you feel anxious about your visit, you can receive inhaled sedation (laughing gas) or oral conscious sedation for a sense of calm throughout your root canal treatment.

Common Questions About Root Canals

Why have a root canal?
A root canal allows you to preserve a natural tooth that’s been affected by deep decay, inflammation, or infection in the pulp. Rather than removing the tooth, Dr. Kaady gently removes the source of the problem, disinfects the area, and seals the tooth to restore its strength and function. This conservative approach helps you avoid more complex issues like shifting teeth, jawbone loss, or additional infection.
Modern techniques make the root canal procedure surprisingly comfortable. Most patients say it feels similar to getting a filling. Dr. Kaady uses a gentle touch and local anesthetic to ensure the area is fully numb before treatment begins. For added peace of mind, we also offer dental sedation to help you feel relaxed throughout the process. Root canal therapy is designed to relieve pain, not cause it.
A root canal removes infection or inflammation from the soft inner portion of the tooth, known as the pulp, so your natural tooth can be preserved. Dr. Kaady carefully accesses the pulp through the top of the tooth. Then he removes the damaged tissue, disinfects the area, and shapes and seals the canals. This treatment relieves pain, protects surrounding teeth from infection, and restores your ability to chew and function comfortably.
