Tooth pain can disrupt your routine, affect your sleep, and make simple activities like eating uncomfortable. When that pain comes from infection deep inside a tooth, it often will not resolve on its own. A root canal in Marietta, GA, is a commonly recommended treatment that removes infected tissue, relieves discomfort, and helps preserve your natural tooth rather than removing it.
At Kenmar Dental, root canal therapy is approached with a focus on comfort, clear communication, and long-term oral health.
Inside each tooth is soft tissue called pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When decay, cracks, or trauma allow bacteria to reach this inner area, infection and inflammation can develop. This often leads to symptoms such as persistent toothache, sensitivity to heat or cold, swelling, or pain when chewing.
Root canal therapy is designed to remove this infected pulp effectively and efficiently. Without treatment, the infection may progress, potentially leading to abscess formation, bone involvement, or the need for tooth extraction. Treating the problem early can help limit complications and preserve the natural structure of your tooth.
Understanding the process ahead of time can ease anxiety. Root canal therapy at Kenmar Dental generally follows these steps:
Your visit begins with a careful review of your symptoms and dental history. Our dentist will explain whether root canal therapy is recommended and answer your questions so you feel informed and confident before moving forward.
Once care is complete, you’ll receive easy-to-understand instructions for healing at home. If additional protection, such as a crown, is recommended, our dentist will explain the reasoning and review the next steps.

Root canal therapy is designed to relieve pain caused by infection rather than cause new discomfort. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, helping patients remain comfortable during treatment. Some mild soreness afterward is normal, but it usually fades as the tooth heals and the infection is resolved. Facing discomfort? Contact us at (470) 377-8004.
The length of root canal therapy depends on the tooth and the extent of infection. Many treatments are completed in one visit with same-day support, while others may require additional appointments. Our dentist will explain what to expect based on your specific situation and answer any scheduling questions. Schedule a visit to get started via the Contact page.
Saving a natural tooth often supports better chewing function, alignment, and long-term oral health. Root canal therapy removes infected tissue while keeping the tooth in place. Extraction may be considered in some cases, but preserving the tooth is often preferred when possible.
After treatment, the tooth is sealed and allowed to heal. In some cases, a crown is recommended to strengthen and protect the tooth over time. Our caring and devoted dental team will provide aftercare guidance and let you know what sensations are normal during recovery.
The cost of root canal therapy can vary based on factors such as the tooth involved, the extent of infection, and whether additional restoration, like a crown, is needed. Our dentist will review treatment recommendations, discuss insurance considerations, and explain costs clearly so you can make an informed decision without surprises.
