Root Canal Therapy
Modern, pain-free root canal treatment to save your natural tooth and relieve discomfort fast.
Overview
Comfortable Root Canal Treatment in Chandler
A root canal is one of the most effective ways to save a tooth that has become infected or severely decayed. Despite its reputation, modern root canal therapy is a comfortable, routine procedure — most patients compare it to getting a filling.
At Gateway Family Dentistry in Chandler, AZ, Dr. Gailey uses advanced techniques and sedation options to ensure your root canal is as pain-free as possible. The goal is simple: eliminate the infection, relieve your pain, and preserve your natural tooth so you can avoid extraction.
If you're experiencing a persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, or swelling around a tooth, don't wait. Early treatment can save the tooth and prevent more serious complications.

Process
What to Expect
Diagnosis & X-Rays
Dr. Gailey examines the tooth, takes digital X-rays, and determines the extent of infection or damage. He'll explain exactly what to expect.
Numbing & Sedation
The area is thoroughly numbed with local anesthesia. Sedation options are available if you experience dental anxiety.
Cleaning the Canals
The infected or damaged pulp tissue is carefully removed, and the canals inside the tooth are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected.
Sealing & Crown
The tooth is sealed to prevent reinfection. In most cases, a custom crown is placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength and appearance.
