Root Canals

Relieving pain and saving the tooth when we can.

When a root canal is the answer

When a tooth is in pain, our first priority is getting you out of it as soon as possible. As a team, we figure out the best next step, and sometimes that's a root canal, alongside options like an extraction, a crown, or a filling. We're here to help you land on the choice that's right for you.

What the visit looks like

We'll explain what's happening inside the tooth, why a root canal is being recommended, and what the procedure involves, before anything starts. The goal is always to save the tooth when that's a realistic option.

"I am thrilled to have Barden Family Dentistry in my hometown! Deanna Barden, owner and dentist, grew up in Osawatomie and is an asset to our community. She provides many dental services in a professional and welcoming practice. She employs great hygienists and office staff. My personal favorite is Kortney Burnett who takes care of my 6 month cleanings. She is gentle, thorough and friendly. Dr. Barden is the absolute best dentist! I highly recommend Barden Family Dentistry!"
