Root Canal Treatment
in Miami for Tooth Pain Relief

A sensitive or painful tooth can be an early warning sign of infection inside the tooth. At Jennifer Lopez Dental in Miami our goal is to protect your oral health and relieve discomfort before the problem becomes more serious. When infection reaches the pulp inside the tooth a root canal may be needed to save the tooth and prevent further complications.

What Is a Root Canal

A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed pulp from the inside of the tooth. The pulp contains nerves blood vessels and connective tissue. When bacteria enter this space through deep decay cracks trauma or old restorations the result can be significant pain and pressure. Treating the infection preserves the natural tooth and restores comfort.

Common Symptoms of Pulp Infection

You may need a root canal if you notice:

• Persistent or throbbing tooth pain
• Sensitivity to hot or cold
• Tooth discoloration
• Swollen or tender gums
• Pain when chewing or applying pressure

How Root Canal Treatment Works

Your visit begins with a complete exam and digital radiographs to determine the source of the infection. Dr Lopez performs non surgical and uncomplicated root canal treatments in our Miami office. After numbing the area she gently removes the infected pulp cleans and shapes the canal and fills it with a biocompatible material to protect the tooth from reinfection.

For cases that are more complex such as curved canals significant infection or retreatment needs Dr Lopez works closely with trusted endodontic specialists. This ensures you receive the highest standard of care while maintaining comfortable continuity between our office and the specialist.
