Relieving pain and saving your natural tooth with precise, modern endodontic care.
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside the tooth, cleans and shapes the interior canals, and seals the space to prevent further infection — allowing you to keep your natural tooth rather than losing it to extraction.
General dentists refer root canal cases to an endodontist for the extra years of specialty training and focused daily experience treating exactly this kind of case — particularly when the tooth's anatomy is complex or the case is unusually painful.
Treatment is performed with local anesthetic, so the tooth is fully numb and you stay comfortable throughout. Dr. Osmond uses CT scan imaging and a surgical microscope for precise diagnosis and treatment, and most root canal treatment is typically completed in just one visit.
Afterward, you’ll go home with clear aftercare instructions, and your dentist will receive a report the same day so they can plan your final restoration, such as a crown.
