Insurance We Accept
What's Included
Our Root Canal Treatment Process
Root canal treatment saves teeth that would otherwise be lost to infection. By removing infected nerve tissue and sealing the tooth, we eliminate pain and preserve your natural tooth structure. Root canals have a 95%+ success rate.
Diagnostic Imaging
We use X-rays and 3D imaging to assess the extent of infection in your root canals. This imaging guides our treatment and ensures we reach all affected areas.
Anesthesia & Sedation
We apply local anesthesia for complete numbness. IV sedation is available if you have dental anxiety, making the procedure comfortable and stress-free.
Access & Cleaning
We create a small access opening in your tooth crown, then use precision instruments to carefully remove infected nerve tissue from your root canals.
Canal Shaping & Filling
We shape each canal to receive filling material, then fill them with biocompatible gutta-percha and sealer, creating a seal that prevents reinfection.
Restoration
We place a temporary filling, then schedule restoration with a crown or permanent filling to protect your treated tooth and restore full function.

Why Choose Us
Why Patients Trust Dr. Reddy for Root Canal Treatment
Modern Technique — Virtually Pain-Free
Today's root canals are nothing like they used to be. With advanced anesthesia and precision instruments, most patients say the procedure is no worse than getting a filling.
Saves Your Natural Tooth from Extraction
A root canal preserves your real tooth, maintaining your natural bite and jawbone structure. It is almost always better than pulling the tooth and replacing it.
Most Patients Feel Immediate Relief
If you're coming in with a toothache, you'll likely feel significant pain relief right after treatment. The infection is removed and the pressure is gone.
Rotary Instruments for Faster, Precise Results
Dr. Reddy uses modern rotary endodontic instruments that clean root canals more efficiently and precisely than traditional hand files — meaning shorter appointments.
