What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth. This pulp contains nerves and blood vessels that, once infected, can lead to serious pain or even abscesses. By removing the damaged tissue, cleaning the inside of the tooth, and sealing it, we preserve your natural tooth and restore function—without the need for extraction.
Did You Know? Root canal treatment has a success rate over 95% and typically lasts a lifetime with proper care.
Signs You Might Need Root Canal Therapy
Many patients come to us in pain, unsure whether a root canal is necessary. Common symptoms include:
- Persistent toothache or sensitivity
- Pain when chewing or biting
- Swelling of the gums
- Darkening of the tooth
- A pimple or bump on the gums (fistula)
If you experience any of these, you may need root canal treatment in Arlington or Palatine, and we’re here to help—quickly and comfortably.
What to Expect During Treatment
We understand that the term "root canal" can cause anxiety—but modern techniques make the process smoother than ever. At Arlington Endodontics, here's what your visit will look like:
- Advanced 3D Imaging
We use low-radiation CBCT scans to get a clear view of your tooth’s root structure. - Microscopic Precision
Using a dental operating microscope, Dr. Eslinger performs the procedure with pinpoint accuracy. - Pain-Free Procedure
Local anesthesia and optional comfort amenities (like a neck pillow, feet pillow, and massaging chair) make your visit calm and pain-free. - Tooth Sealing & Protection
Once cleaned and sealed, your general dentist may place a crown to protect the treated tooth long-term.
Technology-Driven Comfort
We’re not your average endodontic practice. At Arlington Endodontics, we invest in high-tech equipment that translates to better outcomes:
- Microscopic Endodontics for unmatched visibility and precision
- 3D Radiographs (CBCT) to reduce guesswork
- Electric apex locators for enhanced canal accuracy
This technology ensures efficient, minimally invasive root canal therapy with faster recovery times.
