If you're dealing with deep tooth discomfort or an infection, root canal therapy may be the solution to save your natural tooth and prevent more serious dental problems. At The Center of Dentistry in Timonium, MD, we perform root canals with a focus on comfort, clarity, and long-term results.

Modern root canal therapy is more efficient and gentle than most people expect—and it allows us to preserve your tooth rather than remove it.

Root Canal Therapy in Timonium, MD

Root canal therapy is a restorative procedure that treats the inside of a tooth when the pulp (the soft tissue) becomes inflamed, infected, or damaged due to decay, injury, or a deep cavity.

During the procedure:
  • We carefully clean out the infected tissue
  • The area is disinfected and sealed
  • A crown is often placed afterward to protect and strengthen the tooth

This treatment helps eliminate the source of infection while maintaining the natural structure and appearance of your tooth.
