What is a root canal?

A root canal removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, then cleans, disinfects and seals the canals. It is done to save a natural tooth that would otherwise need to come out. Most back teeth need a crown afterward.

Root canal: specialist or general dentist?

Many general dentists perform root canals, especially on front teeth and premolars. Endodontists are root canal specialists with 2–3 extra years of training. They are often recommended for molars with curved or hidden canals, retreatments, and teeth with unusual anatomy.

None of Kalamazoo's 37 clinics offering root canals list an endodontist on staff in our data yet. See endodontists in Kalamazoo

How much does a root canal cost in Kalamazoo?

Typical ranges in USD for Kalamazoo, MI. Your price depends on the tooth, the case and the clinic.

Do general dentists in Kalamazoo do root canals?

Is a root canal covered by insurance or Medicaid in Michigan?

Does a root canal hurt?

Most patients say a root canal feels similar to getting a filling, because the tooth is numbed with local anesthetic. The infection beforehand is often more painful than the procedure. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is common and usually eases with over-the-counter pain relief.
