Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment in North Hollywood – Save Your Tooth and Relieve Pain

At Pacific Dental Group, we provide expert root canal treatment in a state-of-the-art facility with a skilled and professional team. Root canals are a highly effective way to save an infected or damaged tooth, preventing the need for an extraction while restoring function and relieving pain.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is necessary when the nerve inside a tooth becomes infected. If left untreated, the infection can spread, causing the tooth to die and requiring removal. A root canal allows the tooth to be preserved by removing the infected nerve, cleaning the inside of the tooth, and sealing it to prevent further issues. The final step involves placing a dental crown to protect and strengthen the tooth.

The Root Canal Procedure

  1. The infected nerve and pulp are carefully removed.
  2. The inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
  3. An antibiotic substance is used to prevent reinfection.
  4. The tooth is sealed to maintain its structure.
  5. A custom dental crown is placed to restore strength and function.

Is a Root Canal Painful?

Many patients worry that root canals are painful, but with modern techniques and anesthetics, the procedure is no more uncomfortable than getting a standard filling. Our team prioritizes patient comfort, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience.

What to Expect After a Root Canal

Following treatment, mild sensitivity or inflammation may occur due to the previous infection. This discomfort is temporary and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication like ibuprofen. Most patients resume their normal activities shortly after treatment.

Thank you guys for the awesome experience with all my visits. See your guys soon."”

“"Great Dentist, Great Staff. At 57 years-old, I've had several root canals, crowns, bridges, fillings, and extractions from many dentists, some who even advertise on radio. Having tooth-pain and not willing to wait 3 weeks for my regular dentist, I went to Dr. Julius in North Hollywood. I got an appointment the next day and two days later had major dental work on several of my teeth. (I just got home.) I had work done by Dr. Julius and 2 other dental specialists, also dealing with 2 other people of the excellent office staff there. Dentistry is both a preffession and a busines. Or is going to a restaurant only about the chef, and not the service? They didn't serve me food. They took care of my sh*t. Each and every one of them, all seeking the same outcome: to help me. Dr. Julius could advertise on radio, with higher prices. Maybe even on TV. I watched the finals of 'America's Got Talent' last night. Unfortunately, there were no dental offices on display. When it comes to dentistry and my teeth, I know talent. I watched the winners today."”

“"After looking for a new dentist. I settle for PDG as was greeted very nicely and the front receptionist was very sweet. The dentist & his asst. were very pleasant. I'll be staying for all my future dental visits and I can't wait to see how my new smile turns out. I really recommend this place to anybody who is a first time patients. Excellent service and reasonable prices, and cleans establishment, very professional but friendly as well."”

“"It's weird to say I loved getting the screws put to my teeth, but as far as dentists go, these guys are some of the best I've ever been to. Friendly staff as well. I recommend going to them if you're in the area and looking for some dental health care goodness."”

Josh P.

“"High Quality, Professional, Trustworthy. Going to the dentist usually makes people nervous, but the atmosphere here is so lighthearted and relaxing. You're definitely in good hands and won't have to worry about anything. Dr. Julius is very interactive, kind, and mindful of your comfort level at all times and it's so relieving to know that she knows what she's doing. My best dental experience by far :)"”
