Find a LocationWhat is Root Canal Therapy?
Broken and deteriorating teeth are often corrected utilizing a filling or other type of restoration if they are discovered and managed in time. However, if the decay extends to the center of the tooth (also called the pulp), root canal treatment is occasionally required to restore dental function and save the tooth from removal. A root canal is a specialized procedure performed at Concerned Dental Care to remove diseased inner tooth tissue and strengthen the affected tooth to regain dental wellness. Our dental team treats infected or internally decayed teeth with gentle root canal treatment and provides sedation solutions to further increase patient comfort. If you have an extremely painful or abscessed tooth, get in touch with one of our New York City, NY offices today to discover if root canal treatment is right for you.
Are You a Candidate for a Root Canal?
Abscessed tooth pulp may be a result of extreme cavities, a major break, or an accident. We can provide an x-ray and perform an oral assessment to decide if a root canal or other procedure is necessary to relieve tooth discomfort and regain your dental wellness.
Common signs that can indicate the need for a root canal include:
- Sharp or dull toothaches
- Lasting dental discomfort
- Aching while chewing
- Sensitivity to elevated and cold temperatures
- Puffiness around the face or gums
- A large lump on the gum tissues
- Change in the color of a tooth after damage
Root Canal Reviews
Alexandra one of the receptionist is a gem so sweet very thorough. She explained everything clearly . As for the visit , I went for a root canal i didn't get the name of the dentist it was a white female. She was quick!! I have severe anxiety when it comes to the dentist and she was quick .. I didn't feel any pain!! So no complaints from me!
I went for a Root Canal and I can’t believe it wasn’t Painful. The Doctor took his time and really took great care of me! This is the Place to go♥️
The staff in there is amazing above and beyond if you need a root canal done this is your place
Concern Dental of the Bronx has many specialists in one site which makes it very easy for referrals without confusing your insurance. The specialist from oral hygienist, to Maxine, X-ray tech, Root canal, all the dental professionals are extremely skilled and highly qualified and gentle. The office has been updated and cleaned.The problem which is a huge problem is upon calling the office your placed on hold for over 35 minutes, front desk picks up the phone to place you back on hold only to be hung up. Several occasions I waited over 2 hours on hold before reaching a live receptionist. This is unacceptable. #2 I have insurance that is in network with all specialist and the office itself, however front desk continue to tell me I have a copay for a deep cleaning. I asked them to look into the insurance portal which they have access to your insurance information. The front desk shared she is looking and it states you have copay. That’s impossible. I called my insurance where the representative had to tell the front desk look into the portal this member has no copay. Not only I was refered to see a specialty Dr for possible bone surgery she once again try to tell me the insurance doesn’t cover $8000.00. I sat with billing and asked them are you going into my insurance and of course once again she stated yes. I made another call to my insurance and of course my insurance covers the cost for insurance. My insurance is contracted with concern dental and there dentist combined with specialty care which means they agree to cover what the insurance bills for not what concerns bills for. In one visit they try to tell me I had to come out of pocket until I had the representative talk to them and then they cleared up the confusion. How is it confusing when they have access to my insurance ?? Please be careful the front desk ain’t trying to take your money. I will be Shari g this concern to management and to the doctors. Answer the phone on a timely fashion and know the members insurance without trying to scheme them out of money. Not many people will be diligent with knowing their insurance let alone the elderly people that may need to call and may need help with phone calls to their insurance company. Front desk please get better with this. Unacceptable
Dr. Davis is excellent! She performed a molar root canal on me so fast and with absolutely no pain. The staff was amazing tooVery Highly recommended! Thank you to all of them!

What is The Root Canal Process?
At our New York area offices, we employ innovative methods to enhance your comfort throughout your root canal procedure. Root canals are conducted with local anesthesia and are occasionally offered jointly with sedation to produce further relaxation. Once the tooth is numb, a shield is positioned to block the patient's mouth. The impacted region will then be accessed through a small hole made in the top of the tooth. The pulp, which comprises the nerve center and blood storage inside of every tooth, is then extracted, and the inner canal will be reshaped utilizing special endodontic tools prior to being entirely sanitized. We will then seal the restored tooth with an effective substance and finish it off with an anesthetic filling to promote the recovery process.
What Can I Expect After My Root Canal?
All of the tooth pain you were dealing with before your endodontic therapy should start to ebb away once the root canal is done. Over-the-counter pain medication can be used to minimize any aches or swelling that occurs after your session. We will schedule a check-in session about a month after your treatment so we can assess your recovery. Teeth restored with endodontic therapy are more susceptible to deterioration and may require the shielding properties of a personalized crown as soon as they're entirely recovered. A ceramic crown might then be designed to return the wellness and natural look to the tooth.
