Modern procedures are practically pain-free and often painless. However, they have a worse reputation than they deserve because of older techniques and how they have been portrayed in popular entertainment.<br \/>\nThat\u2019s really too bad because many people could <i>avoid<\/i> a lot of pain if they would just get a root canal at the first signs of a tooth infection.<br \/>\nAt the offices of George A. Hoop, DDS, we can help you clear up the problem so you can get back to living a normal life. Call\u00a0(239) 594-8817\u00a0to schedule an appointment at either of our locations in North Naples or Fort Myers, FL.<\/p>\n<h3>Your Teeth Should NOT Hurt<\/h3>\n<p>This is something everyone should remember. Your teeth should not cause you pain.<br \/>\nNow, some people\u2019s teeth are more sensitive than others. So, keep in mind that you should seek help if you are noticing different issues or more intense problems than you experience normally.<br \/>\nThese are all symptoms of a possible tooth infection:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Increased sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks<\/li>\n<li>A noticeably darkened tooth<\/li>\n<li>Pain when biting or chewing with a particular tooth<\/li>\n<li>A pimple-like bump on your gums near your painful tooth<\/li>\n<li>Swollen, tender gums near to tooth that is causing you pain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you are noticing even one of these problems, it\u2019s better to get your mouth checked sooner rather than later. Again, you can call\u00a0(239) 594-8817\u00a0to set up an appointment.<\/p>\n<h3>Removing the Infection<\/h3>\n<p>Toothaches are often the result of bacteria reaching the soft tissue called pulp at the center of a tooth. Bacteria can cause the pulp to become inflamed. This can put pressure on the nerves inside your tooth, which can cause a variety of painful sensations.<br \/>\nA root canal is how we remove the infected pulp and other tissues from the tooth. Once those tissues are gone, we can fill the tooth with a special material to support the healthy parts of the tooth that are left behind. A dental crown can seal the tooth to restore its function and protect against further damage.<br \/>\nBefore we do any of this, however, keep in mind that we offer local anesthetic and both inhaled and oral <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wemakeyousmile.com\/sedation-dentistry.html\">sedation<\/a>. By taking advantages of these options, you can remain pain-free throughout the treatment. As you recover, you\u2019ll notice the pains you had been experiencing before will fade away.<\/p>\n<h3>Feel Like Yourself Again<\/h3>\n<p>As nice as it would be, your toothache is not going to go away on its own. You want to be able to bite, chew, speak, and just breathe without feeling like your tooth is in pain. We can help. We want to help, and we\u2019re close.<br \/>\nDr. Hoop has offices in North Naples and Fort Myers, FL to help you feel like yourself again.
