Root Canal Therapy in Kirkland, WA

A root canal is a standard dental treatment that removes infected or damaged tooth pulp. At Prime Endodontics, these procedures are typically recommended when a tooth is cracked or has suffered severe decay. If bacteria extend to the inner soft tissue of the tooth (called the pulp), a root canal is likely needed to return dental function and prevent extraction. A root canal is a common therapy offered at Prime Endodontics to eradicate infected and inflamed tissues and to enhance oral wellness. In some cases, we may employ the GentleWave® procedure, an advanced technique that cleans the most intricate areas of the root canal system

Patients can rest assured that the process is completely painless and is similar to a standard filling. At Prime Endodontics, our team offers sedation options to further boost patient relaxation. If you suffer from a severely painful or abscessed tooth, call our Kirkland, WA practice soon to discover the health perks of specialized root canal treatment.

 

Modern solutions are utilized to help increase an individual's relaxation throughout a root canal. At our Kirkland, WA facility, root canals are carried out under local anesthesia and can be offered jointly with sedation techniques to produce additional relaxation. When the tooth is numbed, a covering will be set to protect the patient's teeth and gums. The affected region will then be accessed via a tiny opening made in the upper part of the tooth. The pulp, which comprises the nervous tissues and blood supply inside of the tooth, is then removed, and the inner root canal will be reshaped utilizing special endodontic instruments before being thoroughly disinfected. Root canals are then sealed and the tooth is restored to provide full and normal function.

Our team might utilize different contemporary disinfection technologies, including the GentleWave system, a modern alternative to conventional root canal therapy. Current techniques combine fluid dynamics and a broad spectrum of sound waves to predictably eliminate bacteria, debris, and tissue, significantly decreasing the risk of future complications.

My root canal treatment was clean and nice, I didn’t feel any pressure through the procedure. I only need to have one visit and I didn’t feel significant pain during the afterward one week. Now I’m good to go for dental crown. The experience is really great!

Dr. Cohenca is so highly skilled & excellent at what he does. I had a very challenging root canal, and was very anxious. I needn’t have been - I experienced very minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. His staff was great - just couldn’t have asked for more. I would recommend Dr. Cohenca highly!!

If you need a root canal, look no further. Dr Cohenca is the only endodontist I will go to for root canals. I have had so many traumatic ones over the years, but for my last 2(which were repairs of old root canals), he fixed me right up. So professional, yet so sweet and caring. I believe him to be the best out there! He is honest and lets you know exactly what is going on, as well as having a dental office with the latest and greatest technology so you can even watch your own procedure.

I had my second root canal in a week performed by a very caring and skilled Dr. Cohenca. I can honestly say the experience was much easier and painless than I feared. In fact it was a lot like getting a cavity filled, just takes longer, about an hour. I was able to leave the office and go for a pain-free cold smoothie on the way home! The Dr. clearly explained the procedure with images, and I could see the before and after X-rays. He was assisted by skilled and compassionate professionals who made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. The front desk staff is very competent as well.
