Root Canals

Root canal therapy is a routine procedure but one that often evokes anxiety in patients.  However, with advances in dental technology, patients need not be afraid. Root canal therapy is a common and comfortable experience for our patients.

What is Root Canal Therapy?

A root canal is performed in order to remove bacteria from the pulp of a tooth.  If there is an infection, a root canal should be performed as soon as possible.  

A treated infection relieves the pain and can prevent future decay improving the chance of a tooth being preserved.  Following a root canal, a crown is often placed over the tooth.

If you think that you are in need of a root canal, contact our Toronto office located on the Danforth and have one of our dentists examine you as soon as possible.
