Baby Tooth Root Canal Therapy in Mississauga, Ontario

Baby Tooth Root Canal Therapy

If your child’s tooth decay has caused severe damage to the nerve and blood vessels (pulp) of the tooth, baby tooth pulpotomy (partial removal of the nerve and blood vessels) may be considered as an option to maintain the tooth.

In cases of dental infection or swelling, a baby tooth root canal can be used to save a child’s tooth instead of having to remove it. While root canals in adult teeth have a reputation for being uncomfortable, root canals in baby teeth are very different. We will ensure your child is comfortable during the procedure and at home.

Following the baby tooth root canal therapy, a crown is the best option to maintain the tooth until the tooth falls out naturally.

Why Does My Child Need a Root Canal?

For most children, losing a baby tooth is not the best option. These lost teeth could allow the remaining teeth to shift out of place leading to crowding and braces in the future.

If you or your child has any questions before the procedure, we’re happy to take the time to answer them.
