Experience Precise Root Canal Treatment

Your endodontist will use an advanced dental microscope for root canal treatment. This gives us enhanced visibility that allows us to see tiny details inside your tooth and give it a more thorough cleaning. During your procedure, you can expect:

We'll start with detailed images and a clear explanation of your condition.
Your endodontist uses the microscope to guide every step of your root canal procedure.
Your mouth will be numbed, so you have minimal discomfort. Sedation is available, if needed.
Your endodontist removes infected tissue and cleans inside your tooth.
Once your root canal is complete, we'll cap your tooth with a crown. This prevents reinfection.

Our 3-D printing technology can be used to create your dental crown in a single appointment. This eliminates the hassle of a temporary crown and return visit.

Protect Your Restored Smile

Once your root canal is complete, you'll be surprised how quickly you recover. You can expect to resume normal activities within 24 hours. We support your healing process by:

Sharing easy-to-follow care instructions tailored to your needs
Staying available to answer any questions that arise
Scheduling you for a follow-up visit to ensure your treated tooth is healing
Giving you personalized tips to avoid an infection in the future

Once you have fully healed, you'll want to visit us for regular dental check-ups. We can monitor your treated tooth and prevent future problems. If you notice tooth pain or sensitivity, call us right away. Our gentle root canals in Belmont will restore your dental health.

Is root canal treatment painful?

You'll likely experience little to no pain during your root canal procedure. Your endodontist will ensure you're completely numb before beginning treatment. Many patients compare the sensation to having a routine filling placed. You might feel mild discomfort for a few days after treatment, but over-the-counter pain relievers typically provide sufficient relief.

How long does a root canal procedure take?

Your root canal treatment will typically be completed in a single appointment lasting 60 to 90 minutes. Complex cases might require a second visit to ensure thorough cleaning of all canals. You'll be able to drive yourself home immediately after your procedure in most cases. Our microscope technology helps make your treatment more efficient while maintaining exceptional precision.

How will I know if I need a root canal?

You may need a root canal if you experience persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure. Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers after the stimulus is removed often indicates pulp damage. You might notice swelling, gum tenderness, or a small bump near the affected tooth. Your dentist will confirm the diagnosis with detailed imaging before recommending treatment.
