What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Sometimes, tooth pain feels like it won't go away. When this happens, it may mean there's a deeper issue affecting the tooth's health. Root canal therapy at Kaceli Dental Aesthetics is a procedure used to treat infection or damage in the tooth's pulp. The pulp is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes inflamed or infected, it can cause severe pain, swelling, or sensitivity. Without treatment, the tooth can deteriorate further, potentially leading to extraction. Certain symptoms, such as severe tooth pain, lingering sensitivity to hot or cold, swollen gums, or the darkening of the tooth, can signal that a root canal procedure might be necessary. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Monika Kaceli and our team in Newton Centre, MA to ensure your tooth gets the care it needs.
How Does Root Canal Therapy Work?
A root canal treatment removes damaged or infected pulp from inside the tooth to restore its health. Dr. Kaceli numbs the area, creates a small opening to access the pulp, cleans out the infected tissue, shapes the inner canals, and seals them to prevent further infection. Most root canal procedures are completed in 60 – 90 minutes and can often be done in 1 – 2 visits. Afterward, mild soreness is normal. Following aftercare instructions from our team, like avoiding hard foods and maintaining good oral hygiene, will support a smooth root canal recovery.

There’s nothing fun about getting a crown especially in an upper molar but Dr Kaceli was quick and efficient and made it tolerable. She just did my 4th one and didn’t dread it at all.
