If left unchecked, the infection can end up damaging the nerves, meaning you won\u2019t feel any pain. Just because you don\u2019t feel discomfort anymore doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ve improved, as the bacteria can still spread to your gums and jawbone. Not getting a root canal can result in tooth and\/or bone loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2: Root Canal Therapy Can Cause Illness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though some people may suggest root canals can lead to illness, it simply isn\u2019t true. Many of these reports were solely based on poorly designed and debunked research that was done about a century ago. Even now, there isn\u2019t any valid scientific evidence that root canal therapy relates to or leads to other bodily diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3: Root Canals Are Painful<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most common assumptions is that root canal therapy is a painful procedure. Although this may have been true in the past, the treatment is much more comfortable thanks to modern technology and anesthetics. Most patients even claim the process felt no worse than getting a dental filling. Once you\u2019ve undergone root canal treatment, you can be sure to enjoy a pain-free smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4: It Provides Temporary Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The benefits you get from root canals are long-lasting. This procedure can quickly alleviate painful toothaches and preserve the majority of your healthy, natural smile. You\u2019ll likely receive a final restoration, such as a dental crown, to strengthen and protect your affected tooth. With proper care, you can expect to appreciate good oral health for many years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5: Extraction Is Better Than a Root Canal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It may seem convenient at first to extract an infected or painful tooth. However, you\u2019ll have to consider the long-term complications that come with losing one. Not only will a missing tooth lead to bone loss, but you\u2019ll also have to worry about tooth-replacement options, which can become costly over time. So, if your dentist says they can save your pearly whites with root canal therapy, make sure to undergo the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that these common myths have been debunked, you should have nothing to worry about when it comes time for your treatment. Speak with your dentist if you have further questions, and they\u2019ll be glad to review the advantages of root canal therapy on your smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Harris Parkway Dental Care offers excellent and passionate dental services for Fort Worth, TX and the surrounding communities.
