The procedure is not painful, as you may have heard. At Wayne T Ku DDS we will numb the tooth so you won't feel any pain, and there is little discomfort afterwards. Extracting the tooth would be less healthy and more expensive.

Repairing the root canal is the way Dr. Ku can save the entire tooth. The other alternative is to pull the tooth entirely. However, leaving that space empty may create other problems, like making chewing and biting more difficult. Teeth may also shift their position if missing teeth are not there to hold the space.

If you decide to have the dentist pull the tooth and replace it with a denture or bridge, the cost will be significantly more than the cost of a root canal.

Dr. Wayne T Ku is a Plano root canal dentist and has a great deal of experience in treating root canal patients.  Dr. Ku is one of the best Plano root canal dentists.  The care patients receive while at Wayne T Ku DDS is immaculate.  Trust Dr. Ku to take care of your dental needs.
