Root Canal Treatment in Katy & Cypress, TX

Severe Toothache? End the Pain — Keep the Tooth

At Credible Dental in Barker Cypress, Dr. Dutt provides gentle root canal therapy to relieve pain and save teeth that are badly decayed or infected. With modern technology and a careful touch, a root canal feels no more intimidating than getting a filling—and it allows you to keep your natural tooth for years to come.

Understanding Root Canal Therapy

When decay or infection reaches the inside of a tooth, the nerves and tissues (pulp) become inflamed, causing severe pain and sensitivity. Left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to tooth loss or more serious complications. A root canal removes the infected tissue, cleans and disinfects the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent future problems. The result: pain relief and a tooth that functions just like it should.

Why Choose Credible Dental For Root Canal Treatment?

At Credible Dental, Dr. Dutt uses advanced digital imaging and modern endodontic techniques to make root canal treatment precise and comfortable. Local anesthesia keeps you pain-free during the procedure, and for patients who feel anxious, light sedation options are available to help you stay relaxed. Once the root canal is complete, the tooth is usually restored with a crown for long-term strength and durability.

Instead of removing the tooth, a root canal preserves it—helping maintain your natural bite and avoiding the need for replacement.

No nonsense dentist facility. Extremely punctual. The facility is very clean and new. Their cleaning technique is fast and doesn’t waste time. I also liked that Dr. Dutt does the cleanings herself.

FAQs

Got any questions?

A root canal saves a tooth that’s severely decayed, cracked, or infected by removing the infected pulp, cleaning the inside, and sealing it to prevent further damage. We use modern technology and gentle techniques for comfort and effectiveness.

Signs include persistent tooth pain or pressure, lingering hot/cold sensitivity, swelling or tenderness near a tooth, a cracked or broken tooth, or a darkened tooth. Sometimes there are no symptoms; exams and digital X-rays confirm the diagnosis.

With modern anesthetics and equipment, it is about as comfortable as a filling. We numb the area completely and use gentle techniques. Pain typically comes from the infection, not the treatment.

Usually one visit of about 60–90 minutes, depending on the tooth. Molars can take longer due to more canals. A crown is often recommended afterward for strength.

Steps include local anesthesia, a small access opening, cleaning and shaping of canals, filling with a biocompatible material, and restoration with a temporary or permanent filling and often a crown.

With proper care and a protective crown if recommended, the tooth can last a lifetime. Maintain with daily hygiene and regular cleanings.

Costs depend on tooth type and complexity. Front teeth are usually less; molars may cost more. Most PPO insurance covers 50–80%. We verify benefits, provide upfront estimates, and offer flexible payments.

Untreated infection can spread to the jawbone or other areas, leading to serious health risks. The tooth may die and require extraction. A root canal saves the tooth and avoids more invasive procedures.

Avoid chewing on the treated side until crowned, brush and floss gently, take prescribed medication as directed, and attend follow-up for final restoration.
