Save Your Natural Tooth and Relieve Pain
Root canal and crown treatment repairs a tooth that’s been severely damaged or infected. The root canal removes infected tissue from inside the tooth to relieve pain and stop the spread of infection, and a custom crown is then placed to restore strength and appearance — allowing you to keep your natural tooth instead of losing it to extraction.
Benefits of Root Canal & Crown Treatment
Root canal and crown treatment provides both pain relief and long-term protection for damaged teeth.
Key benefits include:
Relieves tooth pain and sensitivity
Removes infection and prevents further damage
Preserves your natural tooth
Restores strength and chewing function
Protects the tooth from future fracture
Maintains natural appearance and alignment
Helps avoid tooth extraction
This treatment is a reliable way to restore oral health while keeping your natural smile intact.
Signs You May Need This Treatment

Root Canal & Crown FAQs
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or damaged tissue from inside a tooth. This helps relieve pain, stop infection, and preserve the natural tooth.
Modern root canal treatment is performed with local anesthesia and is generally no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Most patients feel significant relief once the infected tissue is removed.
A root canal removes the inner structure of the tooth, which can leave it more fragile. A crown covers and protects the tooth, restoring its strength so you can bite and chew normally.
The root canal itself is typically completed in one or two visits, with the permanent crown placed a few weeks later once any temporary restoration has settled.
Most dental insurance plans provide at least partial coverage for root canals and crowns, since they’re considered medically necessary restorative treatment. Our team can help verify your benefits.
