Root Canals
Our dentists at Northgate Dental Centre Burnaby offers root canal treatment for patients that are suffering from tooth inflammation or infection.
What is a Root Canal?
When injury or a large cavity damages the root of a tooth and it becomes infected or inflamed, root canal treatment is needed.
If left untreated, the damaged root can cause severe infection that will damage the bone around the tooth and cause increased swelling and pain.
Root canal treatment is an effective procedure recommended for preserving your natural teeth and maintaining your oral health.
Benefits of Root Canal Treatment
- The damaged natural tooth can be saved from extraction
- Relieves pain, swelling and toothache
- Improves the appearance of the infected tooth
- Reduces the need for future dental work
