Understanding Root Canal Therapy

A root canal, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure that addresses infections or inflammation deep within a tooth. Contrary to common misconceptions, modern root canal treatments are typically no more uncomfortable than a routine filling. Our team of skilled dentists utilizes advanced techniques and equipment to ensure a comfortable and minimally invasive experience.

The Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

  • Save Your Natural Tooth: By preserving your infected tooth, we help maintain the integrity and function of your smile.
  • Relieve Pain and Discomfort: Root canal therapy can provide immediate relief from toothaches and sensitivity.
  • Improve Oral Health: A healthy tooth contributes to overall oral well-being and can prevent further complications.
  • Restore Function: Root canal therapy allows you to eat, drink, and smile confidently without pain.

What to Expect During a Root Canal Procedure

At Aster Dental Care in Edmonton, we understand that undergoing root canal therapy can feel daunting. That’s why we prioritize creating a calming and comfortable environment to ease your concerns. Here’s what you can expect during your appointment:
  • Comprehensive Evaluation: Our dentist will conduct a thorough examination to assess the extent of the infection and determine if a root canal is necessary.
  • Local Anesthesia: You will be provided with a numbing agent to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
  • Pulp Removal: The infected or inflamed pulp within the tooth will be carefully removed.
  • Canal Cleaning and Shaping: The root canals will be cleaned and shaped to eliminate any remaining bacteria or debris.
  • Filling and Sealing: The canals will be filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent future infection.
  • Temporary Restoration: A temporary filling will be placed on the tooth to protect it during the healing process.
  • Permanent Restoration: Once the tooth has healed, a permanent crown or filling will be applied to restore its strength and appearance.
