A root canal has a worse reputation than it deserves. With modern techniques and gentle care, treating an infected or badly damaged tooth is usually no more uncomfortable than a routine filling — and it saves your natural tooth. At White Pine Dental, we keep you comfortable from start to finish.

We numb the area thoroughly, gently remove the infected tissue inside the tooth, clean and seal it, and usually finish with a crown to protect it. Most root canals are completed comfortably in one or two visits.
Many extended dental plans help cover this treatment. Coverage varies by plan, so our team will gladly verify your exact benefits before treatment — just call and we’ll check for you.
Modern root canals are typically about as comfortable as getting a filling. Local freezing is used to help keep you comfortable throughout the appointment.
Most root canal treatments can be completed in one to two visits, depending on the tooth and the level of infection or damage.
In many cases, a crown is recommended after a root canal to help protect and strengthen the tooth, especially for back teeth that handle more chewing pressure.
If you’ve been considering a way to straighten your teeth without the inconvenience of metal braces, Invisalign® may be the perfect solution for you.
Schedule a consultation and take the first step toward a more confident, beautifully aligned smile with Invisalign® in Port Moody today.
