Root Canal Therapy In Pewaukee, WI

A root canal is an effective way to save a decayed or infected tooth and avoid extraction. When the inner pulp becomes inflamed—often due to deep decay, trauma, or a cracked tooth—it can cause pain and sensitivity. At Healthy Smiles in Pewaukee, Dr. Hamedi gently removes the infected tissue, cleans and seals the tooth, and restores it with a custom crown, relieving discomfort and preserving your natural tooth.
