🦷 Root Canal Therapy: Save Your Smile, Not Just Your Tooth

Have tooth pain, lingering sensitivity, or a deep cavity? It might be time to consider root canal therapy — not because your tooth has failed, but because it’s worth saving. At Montevallo Family Dentistry, we use modern, gentle techniques to remove infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth, then clean, seal, and restore it. This isn’t about losing your tooth — it’s about protecting it and preserving your natural smile.

Root canal therapy can help:
✅ Relieve pain
✅ Prevent spread of infection
✅ Avoid extraction
✅ Restore normal tooth function
