Root Canal Therapy in Villa Park, IL
Saving teeth and relieving pain with advanced care
Where Should I Start?
If you’re experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need a root canal. At Aspire Advanced Dentistry, we start with a comprehensive exam and digital imaging to determine whether the inner pulp of your tooth is infected or damaged.
- We’ll identify if a root canal is the right treatment or if another option would be better.
- We’ll create a personalized plan to relieve your pain and save your natural tooth.
What Happens During the Treatment Phase?
Root canal therapy is a common procedure that removes infection while preserving your tooth structure. With modern techniques and anesthesia, treatment is comfortable and efficient.
- Diagnosis & numbing – We ensure you are fully comfortable with local anesthesia.
- Cleaning the canals – The infected pulp is removed from inside the tooth.
- Shaping & disinfecting – The canals are cleaned, disinfected, and shaped to prevent future infection.
- Filling & sealing – The canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed.
- Final restoration – In most cases, a crown is placed afterward to protect the tooth and restore strength.
How Do I Care for My Tooth After a Root Canal?
With proper care, a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy can last a lifetime:
- Brush and floss daily as usual.
- Schedule regular check-ups to ensure your tooth stays healthy.
- If you receive a crown, avoid biting very hard objects to protect it.
- Report any unusual pain or sensitivity promptly.
Do You Offer Financial Options?
Yes. At Aspire Advanced Dentistry, we want treatment to be accessible:
- Insurance coordination where applicable
- Flexible monthly payment plans
- Transparent cost estimates before treatment begins
