At our dental clinic in Edmonton, we use advanced techniques and modern technology to provide treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Root Canal Therapy
What are the signs I might need a root canal?
Common signs include persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling around the gums, or a darkened tooth. If you notice any of these, see a dentist immediately.
Is a root canal painful?
Modern root canal therapy is designed to minimize discomfort. Many patients say it feels no worse than getting a filling thanks to advanced anesthetics and gentle techniques.
How long does a root canal take?
Most procedures can be completed in one to two visits. Your dentist will evaluate the complexity of the case to determine the exact timeline.
What's the recovery time after a root canal?
Recovery is usually quick. Mild soreness may last a few days, but you may be able to return to normal activities almost immediately.
How long does a root canal-treated tooth last?
With proper care and a crown placement, a tooth treated with a root canal may last many years or longer.
How do I know if my child needs sealants?
Your dentist will examine your child’s teeth to determine if sealants may be appropriate. Children with deep grooves or pits in their molars are common candidates, as these areas are harder to clean and more prone to cavities.
