Root Canal Therapy in Abilene, TX

There could be scenarios in which tooth decay progresses to such a stage where filling proves to be ineffective. Such deeper issues require specialized treatment, known as root canal therapy. It involves in-depth removal of the decay within the compromised tooth. At Sam Spence D.D.S, we intend to provide our patients with best-in-class root canal treatment that is less painful and stressful. We strive hard to bring your smile back again.

What is a Root Canal?

It is a dreaded word for many people. The nerves located within the teeth may get hurt due to trauma or tooth decay. The pain in the tooth gradually increases. If left untreated, the infection can occur. It could then lead to tooth loss. During such scenarios, an endodontist may recommend root canal treatment.

Root Canal Treatment by Sam Spence D.D.S

Our root canal procedure by endodontists focuses on removing the bacteria located within the canal space of the tooth. The canals are shaped using special tools. To clean the canal, we make use of special rinses. A rubber-like material is then used for filling the canal. To avoid pain, we use a local anesthetic to make the tooth numb. Even though the process takes longer than a filling, patients are assured of the best results. Our dentists also advise you about the tips that need to be followed upon completing the root canal procedure. We make use of modern tools that make use of the latest technology while performing the root canal procedure. 

So if you have a toothache that persists or wants to know more about the root canal treatment, give us a call, and the Abilene dentist will be happy to help you.

First time ever being at Dr. Spence's practice. Everyone from the assistant to Dr. Spence were absolutely lovely and professional. He was so personable and fun. Best experience I have ever had at a dentist office by far! The whole setting is so nice and comfortable. The staff really cares about your concerns and do their upmost to deliver/suggest the best possible treatment plan fitted for you personally. Also, special shout-out to the temporary dental hygienist Katy. She was so wonderful and nice. Whoever gets her as their hygienist is very blessed!

I was in a lot of pain, and couldn’t find a dentist to fit me in. Even my own wanted to put it off an entire week. Dr. Spence’s staff told me to come in right then. Dr. Spence took great care of me, it was super affordable, and his staff was the nicest! I’ll be transferring to Dr. Spence from now on. 10/10 would recommend!

I came here for a second opinion and it was a wonderful experience. The staff and the doctor were very accommodating and helpful, I brought my 5 year old and now I know he will be treated correctly. Nothing is worth more than peace of mind and that is what I received during my visit.
