FAQs

I have a toothache. How can you help?

Infections often cause pain and pressure in your tooth’s interior. Usually the treatment for a toothache is root canal therapy. When Dr. Schramm does a root canal, he removes the pulp and nerve, cleans, files, and fills the hollow with gutta percha. Then the restored tooth is capped with a porcelain crown. The process leaves you with a functional, healthy tooth.

Some of my teeth are missing. What can you do?
