What is it?

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal (also called endodontic treatment) is a dental procedure that saves a severely damaged or infected tooth instead of extracting it. It involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them hermetically to prevent the infection from returning.

At Canam Smile Makeover, we combine advanced technology and modern anesthesia so the procedure is comfortable, virtually painless and highly effective. The goal is simple: relieve your pain and preserve your natural tooth for life.

Preserves your natural tooth

Immediate pain relief

Is it for me?

What kind of patient is it for?

A root canal is needed when the dental pulp (the nerve) has become infected or inflamed. These are the most common signs that you may need one.

Severe, persistent pain

Strong, sharp or dull toothache, especially when chewing or applying pressure to the tooth.

Extreme sensitivity

Lingering discomfort when consuming very cold or very hot food and drinks.

Swollen gums

Swelling, redness or tenderness in the gum around one specific tooth.

Abscess or pus

A pocket of pus, bad taste, bad breath or constant drainage in the area.

Darkened or cracked tooth

A tooth that changed color after a blow or that has a deep fracture.

Detected by X-ray

Sometimes there are no symptoms, but an X-ray reveals an infection that requires treatment.

Do you have any of these symptoms? Don't wait: the infection can spread and put your tooth at risk.

Step by step

What is the process like?

We perform your root canal in clear, comfortable steps, often in a single visit. Here is how we work:

01

Diagnosis and X-ray

We examine the affected tooth, take digital X-rays and confirm the cause of the problem. We explain everything clearly and answer your questions before we begin.

02

Anesthesia and isolation

We apply local anesthesia so you feel no pain and isolate the tooth to keep the area completely clean and bacteria-free during the procedure.

03

Cleaning and disinfecting the canals

We remove the infected pulp and clean, widen and disinfect each canal with specialized instruments and antiseptic solutions to eliminate the entire infection.

04

Sealing the canals

We fill and hermetically seal the inside of the tooth with a biocompatible material to prevent new infections and give it structure.

05

Restoration and crown

We rebuild the tooth and, when necessary, place a crown to restore its strength, function and natural aesthetics. Ready to smile again!

Duration

60 – 90 minutes per tooth

1 to 2 sessions in most cases
