Pulp Therapy

Pulp Therapy (Baby Root Canals) in Morris Plains, NJ

Saving infected baby teeth so they can do their job until they fall out naturally.

When a deep cavity or injury reaches the soft inner part of a baby tooth, it can cause pain and infection. Pulp therapy, often called a baby root canal, treats the inside of the tooth so it can stay in place and keep holding space for the permanent tooth underneath.

At Morris Plains Center for Dentistry, Dr. Joshua Bagley provides pulp therapy for children throughout Morris Plains, Parsippany, Denville, Randolph, and Morristown. As part of our pediatric dentistry care, we keep your child comfortable and explain each step to you along the way.
