FAQ’s And Answers

Can I see a specialist if I am not referred by a local dentist?

Yes, you can be seen by Dr. Haymore but you will still need to follow up with a dentist after the root canal. If you don’t have a dentist, our office will be happy to recommend a reputable dentist to you. Your initial appointment will consist of diagnosing the problem and initiating the best treatment.

What should I bring, and what should I expect on my first visit?

If you are referred by a Dentist you will need to have the referral slip, insurance card, and a list of medicines if any. Your Dentist will have already sent us all of your x-rays, if we need any additional x-rays we will take them at our office. If you have not been seen by a Dentist prior to seeing Dr. Haymore, we will do a full evaluation and diagnosis to determine what type of treatment you need. Most treatments can be performed on the same day of your evaluation.

Why do I need a specialist?

Although a General Dentist is capable of performing root canals, there are times where certain complications require the care of a Specialist. Dr. Brian Haymore has undergone specific training and uses special instruments, equipment, and the latest technology to ensure the highest quality in endodontic care. We are able to perform the fastest, most efficient treatments because we are dedicated solely to endodontics.

What is the benefit of root canal therapy?

Having a root canal performed on a tooth is a treatment that will save the tooth that would have otherwise died resulting in removal of that tooth. Many patients believe that removing a tooth is a solution, but what is not realized is that extracting a tooth will be more costly and cause problems in adjacent teeth. Nothing on the dental market is as effective and lasting as your natural teeth.

Will the procedure hurt?

The procedure will not be painful because the modern technology of doing root canals has reduced the time and misconceptions of root canal therapy.

How long does the procedure take?

With current modern technology we are able to perform the procedure in one appointment.
