Root Canal Treatment

If you’re experiencing tooth pain or sensitivity, we understand how it can affect every aspect of your daily life. Root canal treatment often gets a bad reputation, but modern techniques have made it a comfortable and highly effective way to save your natural tooth and eliminate pain.

At BK Dental, Dr. Kaltchev and our team have helped countless patients find relief through gentle root canal treatment. Despite what you may have heard, the procedure is similar to getting a routine filling and is designed to alleviate pain, not cause it. We’ll take the time to explain every step, address your concerns, and ensure your comfort throughout the entire process.

Overview

During root canal treatment, infected pulp inside the tooth canal is carefully removed. Then, a sterile compound is applied to fill the affected root. Finally, the tooth is covered with a crown to seal it and prevent further infection and fracture.

Testimonials

BK Dental responded quickly to my emergency holiday request for immediate help and performed the required root canal.

I lost an old crown on a Sunday evening. I called Dr. Kaltchev's office early the next morning. They got me in later that Monday morning. Dr. Kaltchev took time to assess the tooth that was under the crown. The bad news was that there wasn't much of a tooth left, I needed root canal, and then a new crown. The good news was that he asked if I could come back in one hour, and he would work on me during his lunch. Dr. Kaltchev and his staff began the root canal process and did as much as they could the first day. I returned the very next day and Dr. Kaltchev finished the root canal. I have a future appointment to begin the rebuilding of the tooth and to add the crown. I have complete trust in Dr. Kaltchev and his staff! Everyone is so nice and they sincerely care about their patients!
