Root Canal Therapy in Brea: Gentle Relief, Lasting Results

Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity? You may need a root canal— a simple, effective way to relieve discomfort and save your natural tooth. At Grapevine Smiles, Dr. Karen and Dr. Lin provide gentle root canal treatments designed to restore your oral health and keep your smile intact.

What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal treats infection or damage inside a tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue with nerves and blood vessels). It’s often needed due to:

  • Deep decay
  • Cracks/fractures or trauma
  • Severe pain or sensitivity

Without treatment, the infection can spread, possibly leading to tooth loss.

What to Expect at Your Visit

During the procedure, we will:

Numb the area for your comfort

Remove the infected tissue

Clean and shape the root canals

Seal the space with a safe, biocompatible material

Restore the tooth with a crown or filling

Most treatments take 1–2 visits, depending on the case.

Why Choose a Root Canal?

  • Pain Relief: Stops infection and discomfort
  • Tooth Preservation: Avoids extraction
  • Cost-Effective: Less expensive than replacing a tooth
  • Durable: With proper care, your tooth can last a lifetime

Aftercare & Recovery

Mild tenderness is normal after treatment and can be managed with OTC pain relievers. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until fully restored. Maintain good oral hygiene and regular check-ups to protect your results.
