Root Canals in Kingwood, TX

In many cases, a damaged or decayed tooth can be treated with a tooth-colored filling as long as the issue is discovered and dealt with in the early stages. In cases where the bacteria have reached the inner part of the tooth (sometimes called the pulp), root canal treatment may be required to remove the infection and preserve the tooth. A root canal is a common treatment performed at Stellenwerf Dental Studio to take out infected inner tooth tissue and restructure the affected tooth to improve dental function. With this advanced treatment, Dr. Viviana Stellenwerf can restore a compromised tooth and save it from having to be extracted, keeping your smile intact. With Dr. Stellenwerf's gentle approach, you can be confident that your root canal treatment will be comfortable. If you have a badly damaged or infected tooth, contact our Kingwood, TX practice as soon as you can to learn more about how root canal therapy can save your smile.

There is a common misconception that root canals are very painful. In fact, thanks to advancements in sedation and dental techniques, root canal treatments at Stellenwerf Dental Studio are generally comfortable. Before starting, Dr. Stellenwerf will inject local anesthesia into the treatment area to numb any sensations you might feel during the procedure. Once the tooth is dulled, a covering is set to safeguard the rest of your mouth. The infected region will then be exposed via a small hole created in the upper part of the tooth. The pulp, which holds the nerve center and blood supply for the tooth, will be extracted, and the inner canal will be modified utilizing advanced endodontic tools prior to being carefully disinfected. Dr. Stellenwerf will then close off the restored tooth using an effective material and conclude with a sedative filling to start the healing process. You can expect your tooth to be sensitive for a few days after your appointment, but this will pass.

A compromised tooth can have a significant impact on your quality of life, making every mealtime a painful experience. Root canal therapy at our Kingwood, TX practice offers a solution with benefits that include:

  • Addresses pain caused by an infected tooth
  • Can help prevent the need for more complex or invasive treatments later on
  • Preserves your oral health by preventing the spread of infection
  • Can save your tooth from having to be extracted, keeping your smile as natural as possible
  • Allows for greater comfort when you're eating or speaking

Dr. Stellenwerf, her dad, and staff were some of the most kind and caring people I have ever met. I had high anxiety going into the dentist after not going for years and they completely took care of me not only physically with my teeth but emotionally! They calmed my nerves and for that I can not thank them enough. They were the perfect balance of professionalism and wholeheartedness. A combination that is rare in today's world. May God Bless them and their practice for years to come!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Stellenwerf in Kingwood for a dental cleaning, and it was the best experience I've had in the area. Dr. Stellenwerf personally performed my cleaning, and it was thorough and detailed, leaving my teeth feeling exceptionally clean. The early 7:30 AM appointment was a huge plus for me, as it allowed me to get my cleaning done and still make it to work on time. The front desk staff, especially Miss Ana, was welcoming and pleasant, making the entire visit smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend Dr. Stellenwerf for anyone looking for top-notch dental care in Kingwood!
