Get Started
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a restorative dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation inside a tooth. When the inner pulp becomes damaged due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe pain and lead to abscesses if left untreated. Root canal therapy removes the infected tissue, cleans the tooth, and seals it to prevent further problems.
At Longhorn Dental, we perform root canals with a focus on patient comfort and precision. Our compassionate Houston team uses modern techniques to make the procedure as efficient and comfortable as possible.
Types of Root Canal Treatment We Offer
We offer root canal therapy based on the affected tooth and the severity of the infection.
Each treatment is carefully planned to ensure long-term success and tooth preservation.

Will I need a crown after a root canal?
