Root Canal Treatment Toronto, Queen West | Lisgar Park Dental

What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat and save a tooth that’s badly decayed or infected. The infection typically occurs in the tooth’s pulp, the soft inner tissue containing nerves and blood vessels, and may result from deep decay, repeated dental procedures, a crack or chip, or trauma to the tooth. 

During root canal therapy, the infected pulp is removed, the root canals are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, and the space is sealed to prevent further infection. Contrary to common belief, modern root canals are generally comfortable with modern anaesthesia and techniques.

This routine endodontic treatment is an effective way to relieve severe tooth pain, eliminate infection, and preserve your natural tooth rather than extracting it. At Lisgar Park Dental, we provide comfortable root canal therapy that allows you to keep your smile intact while restoring full function and comfort.

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment offers several important benefits for your oral health and overall well-being. It effectively relieves severe tooth pain and sensitivity caused by infection, allowing you to eat and speak comfortably again. By removing the infected pulp and sealing the tooth, the procedure stops the infection from spreading to other areas of your mouth or body.

Most importantly, it saves your natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction or replacement with an artificial one. With proper oral care, the results of a root canal can last for many years, helping you maintain a strong, confident smile.

Cost of Root Canal Treatment in Toronto

The cost of root canal treatment in Toronto depends on which tooth needs treatment, how many canals it has and how severe the infection is. A back tooth (molar) usually costs more than a front tooth because it has more canals to clean and seal. At Lisgar Park Dental, we bill most insurance plans directly, accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and offer payment options.

 

At your first visit, we examine the tooth and give you a written estimate before any treatment starts.

Service is nice and fast, had a quick checkup after my wisdom teeth removal and they were able to schedule me in the next day and clean the removal spots.

I am normally not too fond of going to the dentist. I can’t say that many people are. Although I had a great experience yesterday at Lisgar Park Dental clinic, polite, courteous, very professional , they took very good care of me. I had a great experience.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Hesam Doust and his team. Dr. Doust is professional, knowledgeable, and truly cares about his patients. He explained everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable throughout my visit. I also want to give a special thank you to the girls/nurses at the clinic they were incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. Their friendly attitude helped make the whole experience much more comfortable. The entire team provides excellent care, and I would highly recommend Dr. Hesam Doust and his staff to anyone looking for a caring and professional dental clinic.
 

Root Canal FAQ

Does a root canal hurt?

Most patients feel little to no pain during the procedure. Before treatment begins, we numb the area with local anesthesia. Many patients say it feels similar to getting a dental filling. Some mild tenderness or sensitivity is normal for one or two days afterward and usually eases with over-the-counter pain relief.

Most root canals are completed in one visit, though some complex cases or severe infections may require a second appointment.

Often, especially for back teeth. A crown helps protect a treated tooth from cracking. We will tell you after treatment whether your tooth needs one.

The infection can spread to surrounding tissues, causing abscesses, bone loss, and even tooth loss. Prompt treatment prevents these complications.

With proper oral hygiene, regular checkups, and a protective crown, your root canal-treated tooth can last 10-20 years or longer.
