FREE ArticleTips for a Healthy Mouth
When the root of the tooth becomes infected or compromised due to cracking or trauma, a root canal can save your tooth. Without a root canal, your tooth will need to be extracted in order to stop the infection from spreading to the rest of your body. A root canal is a simple procedure that replaces the infected pulp in your tooth. Dr. Tuong Nguyen Nguyen specializes in endodontics, the area of dentistry that treats the root of the tooth. He stays up-to-date on the most advanced techniques to ensure that his patients receive the most effective and most comfortable root canals available.

Patient Testimonials Request AppointmentI found Dr. Nguyen’s office through my insurance. He took CBCT scans as well as x-rays for treatment. With new technology they’re able to see more clearly what’s going on anatomically. It makes me feel confident that the doctor knows what he’s doing if he’s learning new things, not just kinda stuck in his old ways. I was fine after the treatment. I was really impressed with the doctor's chairside manner. He was very polite to his assistants.See More Reviews
