Root Canals

Root Canals in Columbus Ohio

A root canal is a small tunnel under your tooth that houses the roots and nerve endings of each tooth. Typically, the signs of an infected root canal are swollen or a darkened gumline and unusual sensitivity to hot or cold food and beverages. Also, you may notice a small bump or tender area of your gum line.
