Root Canal

A root canal is a procedure to save a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged. At Walnut Creek Dental, Dr. Patel uses advanced techniques and 3D CBCT imaging to perform root canal treatments with precision and minimal discomfort, so you can keep your natural tooth and avoid extraction.

Root canal treatment has come a long way — modern techniques make the procedure comfortable and efficient. Dr. Patel received specialized endodontic training through the UCLA AEGD program, and her gentle approach ensures you feel at ease from start to finish. Most patients are surprised at how comfortable the experience actually is.
