How We Diagnose Root Canal Needs

A root canal is a restorative dental procedure used to save a tooth with infected or damaged pulp. Instead of removing the tooth, the infected tissue is carefully cleaned out, and the area is sealed to prevent further issues. This treatment can relieve pain, stop the spread of infection, and help preserve your natural bite.

You may need a root canal if you experience:

  • Persistent tooth pain or pressure
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums
  • Darkening of the tooth

At Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney in Charlotte, NC, we use advanced diagnostic technology to assess your symptoms. If a root canal is needed, we’ll connect you with our trusted partners at Precision Dental Partners for expert care.

Advanced Imaging 
for Precise Diagnoses

Before recommending any root canal therapy, Drs. Pinnix and Betancourt use advanced diagnostic tools to evaluate your condition thoroughly. Our Charlotte office features 3D cone-beam technology, a digital scanner, and high-resolution intraoral imaging. These tools help us detect inflammation, infection, or structural damage with greater accuracy than traditional X-rays.

This approach leads to faster and more confident diagnoses. If a root canal is needed, we provide Precision Dental Partners with detailed visuals to support seamless, informed care.

 

Restoring Your Tooth After a Root Canal

Once your root canal is complete at Precision Dental Partners, Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney will handle the final phase of your treatment by placing a custom dental crown. This restoration is essential for sealing the tooth, preventing future damage, and restoring your ability to chew comfortably. 

Our Charlotte office offers both traditional lab-made crowns and same-day options using CEREC® technology. Dr. Pinnix IV and Dr. Betancourt carefully design each crown for a precise fit and natural appearance, using digital imaging to ensure seamless integration with your smile. Whether you’re visiting from Ballantyne, Gastonia, or another nearby community, you can expect high-quality care and lasting results delivered in one convenient location.
