​

Do I need a root canal or a filling?

​

Most people know when they need a root canal.  They either have spontaneous pain that wakes them up at night, or they have an abscess with associated draining puss.  Another reason for a root canal would be lingering pain.  If you have a cavity that goes into the nerve, the nerve might have died and you would feel no pain.  If you have a cavity into the nerve canal, you will need a root canal to eliminate a future abscess.  We try to eliminate all other possibilities, such as periodontitis or clenching, before doing a root canal.  Pain that goes away or is associated with cold, heat, or eating only may be able to be fixed with a filling.

​

Do you have grants for implants?

​

We are unaware of any grants that pay for implants.  You may use Care Credit to finance your implants.  There are many alternatives to implants that are cost-effective, for example, dentures, partials, or bridges.
