\"\"<\/a>No patient wants to hear that they need a root canal<\/a>. But there\u2019s a reason why doctors like Dr. Dory Stutman<\/a> and Dr. Khalida Stutman<\/a> perform them instead of just extracting teeth when they become infected. With a root canal, our South Shore Dental Care<\/a> team can help you preserve more of natural smile, which will benefit you in the long run.<\/p>\n

Tooth Extractions vs. Root Canals<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a moment to consider these two very different approaches to treating an infected tooth.<\/p>\n

A tooth extraction, on the one hand, will help you eliminateinfection and restore your smile to a healthier state. But extracting a tooth also creates a particular complication. With a tooth now missing, you have to replace what you\u2019ve lost to prevent surrounding teeth from repositioning. That means coming back to our Massapequa<\/strong> dental office for a whole other service, like a crown and bridge or a dental implant, which can also help you stave off bone loss.<\/p>\n

Now consider the benefits of a root canal<\/strong> from South Shore Dental Care<\/strong>. With a root canal<\/strong>, there\u2019s no missing tooth to replace and no threat of bone loss. Some patients may need to have their tooth capped with a crown, but that tooth and its root are still there, ensuring that your smile\u2019s appearance and functionality aren\u2019t negatively impacted.<\/p>\n

Does Your Smile Need Restorative Care?<\/strong><\/p>\n
