Non-Surgical Root Canal in Ocean Township
What is a root canal?
A root canal is one of the most common dental procedures performed, well over 14 million every year. This simple treatment can save your natural teeth and prevent the need of dental implants or bridges.
At the center of your tooth is pulp. Pulp is a collection of blood vessels that helps to build the surrounding tooth. Infection of the pulp can be caused by trauma to the tooth, deep decay, cracks and chips, or repeated dental procedures. Symptoms of the infection can be identified as visible injury or swelling of the tooth, sensitivity to temperature, or pain in the tooth and gums.
Have Questions About Non-Surgical Root Canal? Call or Make an Appointment Today!
If you experience any of these symptoms, your dentist will most likely recommend non-surgical treatment to eliminate the diseased pulp. This injured pulp is removed, and the root canal system is thoroughly cleaned and sealed. This therapy usually involves local anesthesia and may be completed in one or more visits depending on the treatment required.
Success for this type of treatment occurs in about 90% of cases. If your tooth is not amenable to endodontic treatment or the chance of success is unfavorable, you will be informed at the time of consultation or when a complication becomes evident during or after treatment.
We use local anesthesia to eliminate discomfort. In addition, we will provide nitrous oxide analgesia if indicated. You will be able to drive home after your treatment, and you probably will be comfortable returning to your normal routine.
Endodontic Presentation
To provide you with a better understanding of endodontic procedures, we have provided the following multimedia presentation. Many common questions pertaining to root canal therapy are discussed.
What happens after a root canal?
When your root canal therapy has been completed, a record of your treatment will be sent to your restorative dentist. You should contact their office for a follow-up restoration within a few weeks of completion at our office.
Your restorative dentist will decide on what type of restoration is necessary to protect your tooth. It is rare for endodontic patients to experience complications after routine endodontic treatment or microsurgery.
If a problem does occur, however, we are available at all times to respond. To prevent further decay, continue to practice good dental hygiene.
How much does a root canal cost?
The cost associated with this procedure can vary depending on factors such as the severity of damage to the affected tooth and which tooth is affected. In general, endodontic treatment is much less expensive than tooth removal and replacement with an artificial tooth.

Patient Review By Thomas K
Dr. Apolito was outstanding and considerate to all of my concerns. From the moment you meet him it becomes very apparent he loves his profession and is a people person. The staff is at all times the friendliest group of workers i have ever seen in action. The group as a whole genuinely care about how you feel from the time you arrive until the time you leave. This is the only place i would ever recommend for anyone who needs root canal surgery. Another nice surprise is when you have an appointment time, unlike other places they get you in the dental chair at that time with the doctor.

Patient Review By Corinne C
I've had sub-par dental treatments at various other dentists, so needless to say, I was very nervous coming here for my root canal. However, Dr. Thai and her assistant immediately put me at ease. They were both very professional, but also friendly and personable. Their conversations with me prior to the procedure immediately helped me relax! The procedure itself was fast and painless--I barely even felt Dr. Thai administering the Novocaine. She talked me through the entire procedure, letting me know what she was doing or what I should expect to feel, and she repeatedly asked if I was okay to make sure I wasn't in any pain, which I appreciated a great deal. She was very gentle, and the pressure on my tooth was barely noticeable. I have to say that this was the most comfortable I've ever been during any dental procedure--I was completely impressed by the entire practice, including the receptionists, who were so kind to me even though I was so nervous! I would absolutely recommend this practice, and especially Dr. Thai, to anyone!

Patient Review By Don F
I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Thai and her office and staff. My daughter was referred to them and on short notice they saw her and performed a root canal. She had immediate relief. And I'd also like to recognize Debbie at the front desk. She is very friendly, warm and kind and did a great job in explaining what my daughter would go through and what we could expect.

Patient Review By Tami Regan
Dr parente has been terrific with Patrick! Starting with the first day we arrived after he had trauma during a basketball camp, Dr Parente fit him in his schedule very quickly and explained everything that was happening making sure we had all of our questions answered. He has been equally as attentive at future visits as well. We would highly recommend him to others!
