ROOT CANAL THERAPY Grover Beach, CA
Restore and Save Your Tooth with a Root Canal
Pain and sensitivity is common when you have an infection in your tooth structure - including the root. Root canal therapy targets the infection and saves your tooth from being extracted.
Reconsider what you’ve heard about root canal treatment
There’s a lot of misunderstanding around root canals. Opinions aside, root canal treatment isn’t always a painful procedure.
During Root Canal Therapy
-
Sedation is available to assure your comfort.
-
You’ll likely notice that your previous pain is gone following the treatment.
Know your root canal symptoms
A noticeable infection or ongoing tooth pain are symptoms you shouldn’t ignore. Your tooth structure and the surrounding gum tissue can experience further damage if your symptoms persist.
-
Tooth discoloration
-
Swelling, redness, or bleeding in your gums surrounding your tooth
Your tooth can be saved
Root canal therapy focuses on the cause of your tooth infection. The treatment removes the infection, prevents it from becoming worse, and promotes healing.
It’s important to follow care instructions to ensure a comfortable recovery period after a root canal.
-
Avoid heavy chewing or eating hard, sticky foods
-
Be gentle as you brush and floss on or around the treated area
-
Use recommended over-the-counter pain medication to deal with any pain or discomfort
-
Follow post-treatment instructions and use prescribed antibiotics
-
Contact our Grover Beach dental office about any complications or extended discomfort
Schedule an examination and consultation with your Grover Beach dentist to discuss saving your tooth with root canal therapy.
Patients Experience
- Charlene P.I went to Dr Perez after having a horrible experience with another out of town Dentist. He picked up right in the middle of someone else's mess. He is kind, very informative and the staff is all very nice and accommodating. He does 5 star work and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Now I have my implants and can smile again. Thank you White Crest Dental . You Rock!!!read moreread lessFabiola V.Staff is super friendly and professional. I’m so glad I discovered Dr. Raul’s office. I took my mom for an emergency and they made space to see us immediately, when in Santa Maria we visited more than 5 dentists without success. When I saw the job and attention on my mom I made a schedule for myself. The doctor and his assistant talk you through the procedure while working on you and ask you if you’re feeling okay and make sure you’re doing good. They take all the safety measures, even checking your pressure before the anesthesia, and show you educational videos on how to take care of your teeth at the end of your visit. The doctor and office staff are bilingual and talk Spanish. Now all my family is coming to White Dentistry! 100000 stars!!read moreread lessJohn S.WhiteCrest-Smart Dentistry is the best dentist that I have ever had! Not only does Dr. Perez provide excellent dental service, the staff put the time and effort to ensure that your experience is a positive one. Look no further, I would recommend WhiteCrest-Smart Dentistry to anyone living on the Central Coast.read moreread less

- Alvaro C.NO PAIN!, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !, AMAZING DENTIST AND TEAM! PATIENCE WITH ME AND MY TEETH My experience with this team of dentists was great and I don't want to keep it to myself. my teeth were years without maintenance, they deteriorated with some cavities and some old root canals The WHITE CREST team guided me through the procedure and with their modern technology they found and solved all my denture problems. Best of all, I didn't feel pain at any time. I am happy with Dr. Raul Perez and I want to share it with you.read moreread less
- Melissa V.I cannot say enough incredible things about this dentistry. Staff and Dr are very welcoming and kind. I have had no problems getting appointments scheduled within a reasonable time. Dr and staff always ensure I am well-informed and try to get the most out of my insurance. I have had a lot of fear from past dental experiences, but the approach of this office to their care is genuine. I definitely recommend their services.read moreread lessAmberI am not shocked this dental office has so many great reviews. I called as a new patient today and spoke to Michelle. She is so incredibly kind and supportive. It is refreshing! She even shares an experience of her own anxiety and how Dr. Perez has “angel hands” and made her feel really comfortable which helps me feel better too. I haven’t seen the dentist yet and will post another review when I do. But I already feel so much calmer about going now. Plus, the wait time for an appointment is less than a month and they worked with our crazy schedules. Very grateful already! Thank you Michelle!read moreread less
