Root Canals in Braselton, Gainesville & Dahlonega

Getting To The Root Of The Matter

No one looks forward to a root canal, but sometimes it’s necessary to maintain your oral health. At BGW Dental Group, our dentists in Braselton, Gainesville, and Dahlonega provide precise, gentle root canal treatments designed to preserve your teeth and prevent future dental complications. Preserving a tooth with a root canal is often safer and better than extraction, helping to maintain overall oral health.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat a tooth or nerve that has become decayed or infected. During the procedure, the dentist removes damaged tissue and bacteria from inside the tooth, cleans and disinfects the area, and then seals it to prevent further infection. This treatment can save your natural tooth and relieve pain effectively.

Signs You Might Need a Root Canal

You might require a root canal if you notice:

A gum abscess with swelling or pressure Sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks Severe, persistent tooth pain
Discoloration or darkening of the tooth Pain when chewing or touching the tooth

What to Expect During a Root Canal

Our experienced dental team can often complete a root canal in one visit. The procedure involves:

  1. Removing bacteria and decay from the infected tooth
  2. Treating affected nerves
  3. Sealing and filling the tooth for long-term protection

Root canals relieve pain and prevent further infection, helping you keep your natural teeth for years to come.
