At Aurora Borealis Dentistry, we understand that the idea of a root canal can feel intimidating—but it doesn’t have to be. With advanced techniques and gentle care, Dr. Khan and our team provide root canal therapy that is safe, effective, and designed to relieve your condition.

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage deep inside a tooth. Instead of removing the tooth, we carefully clean, disinfect, and seal the inner canals to preserve your natural smile.

You may need a root canal if you experience:

• Persistent toothache or pressure
• Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
• Swelling or tenderness in the gums
• A cracked, broken, or deeply decayed tooth
• A visible abscess or bump near the gumline

These symptoms may indicate that the tooth pulp—the soft tissue inside the tooth—has become inflamed or infected.

1. Gentle Freezing
   We begin by fully numbing the area to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
    
2. Precise Cleaning
   The infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed, and the inner space is cleaned and disinfected.
    
3. Sealing the Tooth
   We fill the root canals with a biocompatible material and seal the tooth to prevent reinfection.
    
4. Restoration
   Most root canal-treated teeth require a custom dental crown for protection and full function. We’ll guide you through every step.

If you're in pain or have been told you need a root canal, don't wait. Early treatment can save your tooth and prevent more serious problems.
