Preserve Your Smile With Root Canal Therapy

An infected tooth can impact not only your oral health but your overall well-being in the process. At North Queen Dental in Etobicoke, we’ve helped countless patients preserve their smiles with root canal therapy, and we’re here to help you do the same!

What Are The Advantages Of Root Canal Therapy?

If you have a deep cavity or severely fractured or infected tooth, root canal treatment may be required to:

• Eradicate Infection: This service can effectively reduce pain and irritation caused by an infected tooth.
• Preserve Your Natural Tooth: Root canal therapy can save your natural tooth, helping you avoid extraction and promoting your long-term oral health.
• Prevent Further Damage: By eradicating infection, root canal therapy prevents it from spreading to nearby teeth and throughout the body.

Who Can Benefit From This Restorative Service?

Root canal therapy can help patients experiencing irreparable decay and/or a severely cracked, injured, or fractured tooth. If you suspect you may need this service, we’ll thoroughly examine your tooth and help you determine if it’s right for you.

Aftercare Tips For Root Canal Therapy

After your procedure, follow these suggestions for a quick and smooth recovery:

• Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brushing twice and flossing once a day is key to keeping your smile healthy.
• Use Antibiotics As Prescribed: If our dentist prescribes you antibiotics, be sure to take them as directed.
• Attend Follow-Up Appointments: Ensure you schedule and attend regular follow-up appointments to protect your tooth (and overall smile!).
• Avoid Chewing On Hard Foods: Be diligent about avoiding hard foods, which could expose your tooth to unnecessary pressure and damage.
