Root Canal Vancouver BC – Saving Infected Teeth

Eliminate current (or future) pain and protect the rest of your mouth with our safe, painless and effective root canal treatment

Root canal treatment Vancouver BC is available at Granville Station Dental. This endodontic therapy saves infected teeth and relieves pain. Trust our skilled team in Downtown Vancouver (Granville Station) to preserve your natural tooth. Schedule a consultation at (604) 408-9200.

Teeth decay, break, and crack. When this happens, a root canal might be the best course of action. Root canal therapy salvages the natural tooth rather than replacing it with a dental implant. The tooth will appear the same way it did before the procedure and may last forever without another treatment.

Key Benefits:

  • Keep your natural smile and avoid dental implants
  • Essentially painless
  • Short treatment process
  • Maintain normal biting sensation

About Our Root Canal Treatment in Vancouver

A root canal involves gently removing the nerve tissue of a tooth and sealing the canals with a special rubberlike material. After root canal therapy the tooth will not be able to feel temperature or pain but will maintain normal biting power and sensation.

Our dental clinic offers a reliable solution for saving teeth that are severely infected or damaged. At our dentist practice, we provide high-quality root canal procedures to help you maintain your natural smile and avoid the need for tooth extraction. If you’re experiencing tooth pain or sensitivity, a root canal might be the ideal solution for you.

Root Canal Procedure

The root canal procedure at our practice in Vancouver is thorough and efficient, ensuring your comfort and the best possible outcome:

  1. Consultation and Examination: During your initial visit, we will examine your tooth, take X-rays, and determine if a root canal is necessary.
  2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the affected area, ensuring a pain-free experience.
  3. Removal of Infected Tissue: The dentist creates an opening in the tooth and removes the infected or damaged pulp.
  4. Cleaning and Disinfection: The inner chambers of the tooth are cleaned and disinfected to eliminate any remaining bacteria.
  5. Filling and Sealing: The cleaned chambers are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent future infection.
  6. Restoration: A crown or filling is placed on the tooth to restore its strength and appearance.

“My family and I have been patients of Dr. Aliakbari for over two decades, and we couldn’t be happier with the care we’ve received. I have a lot of dental anxiety, but he is always incredibly gentle, patient, and reassuring, making every visit stress-free. He takes the time to explain everything and ensures I’m comfortable throughout the appointment. The secretary is also very accommodating and makes scheduling a breeze. If you're looking for a skilled and compassionate dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Aliakbari!”

“I’ve never had bad experience at Granville Station dental. I’ve been patient since 2012, all staffs and doctors always have been nice. I’ve seen Dr.Alghabi for annual check normally, but recently I had filling came off so saw Dr.Hariri who was working on the weekend. He made sure if doesn’t feel good, I can even come next day to consult again. Another great experience. Thank you!”

“I’ve been seeing Michelle at Granville Dental for years now. Without a doubt the best CDA I’ve ever seen. Not only does she make me feel comfortable going to the dentist. But the least discomfort with any actual procedure that gets done. I would highly recommend her to everyone.”

“I have been a longtime patient here, for good reason. The staff are all super professional, friendly and helpful. The hygienists are fantastic and thorough, and the dentists are the best I have ever come across. I have never experienced any discomfort at any time with them when getting any sort of work done. I had a filling put in yesterday and I forgot about it this morning until I received a follow up email from them. Truly a great team!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it hurt?

In the past root canals have been quite painful but with new advances is no more uncomfortable than a regular filling

Will I need any other work other than my root canal?

You may require a dental crown so that the tooth does not fracture following the treatment. A tooth that has undergone the therapy may become more brittle and overtime may be susceptible to cracking.

Will my insurance cover the cost of my root canal?

Most of our treatments are covered by a majority of insurance companies. For a more detailed explanation of your coverage please call your service provider.
