Providing Pain-Free Root Canal Treatment

Dental anxiety affects many people, even to the point that they won’t seek out a professional dental cleaning. That’s why Dr. Carol Moreno, Dr. Carolyn Duong, and Dr. Roberto hope you’ll reach out to us with any questions you have concerning root canals, which are intimidating even to patients who don’t mind visiting the dentist.

Here’s how we ensure you feel no discomfort during your treatment:

  • A strong numbing gel is applied to your tooth so you feel no pain whatsoever
  • Relaxation dentistry is provided for you in two forms, including:
    • Free laughing gas, which puts you in a completely calm state, and further ensures you experience no discomfort
    • Oral conscious relaxation, which is stronger and allows you to remain awake but just on the brink of sleep

Our offices in West Liberty, IA, North Liberty, IA, and Muscatine, IA also have ceiling TVs in every operatory, and we can provide neck pillows and more to help make your visit as pleasant as possible.

Improving Your Oral Health And Daily Routine With Root Canals

If you’re suffering from a persistent toothache, you’re likely unable to enjoy your job, time spent with your family, or even relaxing with a favorite snack at the end of the day. A root canal can rid you of dental pain by cleaning out the damaged pulp inside the tooth. Dr. Carol Moreno, Dr. Carolyn Duong, or Dr. Roberto will use the following techniques to get your life back on track:

  • Digital X-rays will be taken of your mouth to determine if a root canal is necessary.
  • The damaged pulp will be gently removed from your tooth, and the interior of your tooth will be completely cleaned.
  • A dental crown may be created during your visit and placed over your tooth to protect it from any further harm or bacteria.

Call 563-288-2612 or use our online form to schedule your appointment or ask any questions today. Our doctors at Gentle Family Dentists and friendly staff are ready to prevent dental pain from further disrupting your life.

All of the dentists at gentle family dentists are amazing! We love Dr. Carole! Her approach is so effective! It has saved both our children from oral surgery in their late teens years. The entire staff is thoughtful, kind, extremely caring and gentle! It is a pleasure to be treated there!
Amber P.North Liberty
Great experience and the team truly showed concern for me during my extraction experience. They were able to get me in quick and then also accommodated my crazy work schedule and got several timely services done before work so I would not be in pain any more. I would recommend this team to anyone. And if you are not using these wonderful people then you are missing out.

Benjamin W.West Liberty
Dr. Caroline did an amazing job with my crowns on my front teeth, fitting my night guard many times until it was right, and guiding me through the zoom at home whitening kit. I have a whole different smile and I feel so confident. Every person there is so friendly and helpful! Thanks so much!
Laura P.Muscatine
Chipped a molar last night eating popcorn. This morning they were able to get me in for a quick x-ray, then get an appointment scheduled for the afternoon to do the crown. I wasn’t in any pain but I feel so fortunate to have had it fixed so quickly! They have fancy technology & knew exactly what they were doing. Perfectly matched the tooth color. Extremely pleased with my experience!
Laura L.Muscatine
I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate this office. I have hated the dentist for most of my life and stopped going. Now I have teeth issues that embarrasses me. Dr. Grant and the staff have been amazing and made me feel so supported and not judged at all. I’m so happy I found this clinic. I can’t wait to get my smile back!
