Doctor Jim Jelinek on Root Canals

Root canals have a bad rap and the reason is is because a patient says, “I felt it,” and so, root canals aren't really that bad. What a root canal is it's like a really deep filling. A filling's more superficial in the tooth. A root canal is actually your filling further down into the tooth, that's what you're doing, and so you need good anesthesia. If you have good anesthesia, you're not going to feel it and it's not going to be an unpleasant experience for you.

When we see a patient needs a root canal, we'll anesthetize them, we'll do the root canal, and usually on a tooth too, after you do a root canal, you're going to need a crown on it because its structure is weak, and we try to do that the same visit too because the patient's numb, they're already here. So let's do the root canal, let's go ahead and do the build-up, and let's do the crown prep right then and there, and that's usually the way we do it.

Now, on the other hand though, if time doesn't permit, then, again, we have really good specialists that we refer to who, again, we would go to if we needed something as well, and who could do a root canal for us as well, and then we'll get the patient back and do the finish-up restorative work on the tooth.

Here are some advantages of coming to us for your root canal treatment:

  • Our dentists’ 70-plus years of combined experience
  • Relaxing sedation options such as laughing gas, conscious oral sedation, and IV sedation
  • A compassionate staff dedicated to making your procedure stress-free
  • Great amenities like warm blankets, comfortable pillows, and headphones to relax with the music of your choice

Feel better and keep your smile intact! Call our friendly office today to find out how you can save your tooth with a root canal procedure: 540-253-1377.

Get Out of Pain With a Comfortable Root Canal Procedure

Endodontic treatment (what many people refer to simply as a “root canal”) is necessary when tooth decay reaches the sensitive inner portion of your tooth, known as the pulp. When this happens, infection sets in and can cause pain and swelling. It can be difficult to eat comfortably or even sleep well at this point. Contrary to popular belief, a root canal procedure causes no more discomfort than a tooth filling does. In fact, this procedure is beneficial in several ways by:

  • Eliminating pain caused by advanced tooth decay and infection
  • Preserving your natural tooth
  • Preventing further damage to surrounding teeth and gums
  • Making it easier to smile again

Relax With Sedation During Root Canal Treatment

When we perform a root canal procedure, we’ll gently clean out the infected tooth pulp, sanitize the inner portion of the tooth, then thoroughly seal the tooth to prevent further decay. If your tooth is badly damaged, we may recommend a dental crown or other restorative dentistry option to make your tooth look and function normally again.

Although we’ll numb your mouth with local anesthesia before your procedure, you can also receive dental sedation if you’d like. We offer three relaxing choices:

  • Inhaled Sedation (Laughing Gas)
  • Oral Sedation
  • IV Sedation

Get the relief you need from a nagging toothache! Call the experts in Warrenton root canals at Drs. Yung & Jelinek: 540-253-1377. You can also make an appointment online.

I got a deep cleaning done of my entire lower jaw and a couple teeth on my upper jaw. Lots of painkiller shots which is always the worst part for me but it was fairly unpainful this time. The technician was really good. So overall the service was really great.

Common Questions About Root Canals

Why have a root canal?

When the soft inner portion of a tooth (known as the pulp) becomes infected, it can produce intense pain. This can happen as a result of an untreated cavity or an injury to the tooth that allows bacteria inside. A root canal involves removing the diseased pulp, sterilizing the tooth, and sealing it with a rubberlike material and a crown.

Are root canals painful?

While they have that reputation, most patients find a root canal no more uncomfortable than receiving a filling. The procedure eliminates pain; it doesn’t cause it! We’ll numb your mouth with local anesthesia so you don’t feel pain. You may find it easier to relax if you also receive one of our three forms of safe dental sedation.

What does a root canal do?

Root canal therapy (often shortened to just “root canal”) is a treatment that can stop the throbbing pain of a diseased tooth, save the tooth from extraction, and prevent further damage to your other teeth and your gums. Many people fear root canals, but they are actually not painful here thanks to modern techniques.
