Root Canal Therapy in Ottawa
A root canal has a scary reputation it no longer deserves. Today it is a comfortable way to stop pain and save your tooth.
When decay or injury reaches the nerve inside a tooth, it can cause serious pain and infection. A root canal gently removes the damaged tissue, disinfects the inside of the tooth, and seals it — relieving the pain and letting you keep your natural tooth instead of losing it.
With modern techniques and thorough numbing, most patients say the procedure feels no different from having a filling. We often complete treatment in a single visit, and we finish by protecting the tooth so it can serve you for years.
Root canal therapy is covered under the Canadian Dental Care Plan for eligible patients. If you are in pain right now, call us — we keep same-day slots for emergencies.
