What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a damaged tooth, cleans and seals the space, and restores the tooth with a custom crown. It relieves the pain caused by infection and — most importantly — lets you keep your natural tooth instead of losing it to extraction. Modern root canal treatment is far more comfortable than its reputation suggests, and it's usually completed in just one or two visits.
Do You Need a Root Canal?
If any of these sound familiar, it's worth getting checked.
Persistent Tooth Pain
Pain that lingers or throbs, especially when chewing or biting down.
Sensitivity to Hot & Cold
Pain that stays long after the hot or cold sensation is gone.
Swollen or Tender Gums
Swelling near the affected tooth, sometimes with a visible bump.
Tooth Discoloration
A tooth that has darkened compared to the teeth around it.
Myth vs. Reality
Myth: Root canals are extremely painful
Modern anesthesia makes the procedure about as comfortable as getting a filling. Most patients feel immediate relief from the pain they had before treatment.
Reality: The infection is what hurts, not the treatment
The pain you feel beforehand comes from the infection. The root canal removes that infection — that's why patients feel better afterward, not worse.
Myth: It's better to just pull the tooth
Extraction seems simpler, but it creates new problems: bone loss, shifting teeth, and the cost of a bridge or implant later.
Reality: Saving your natural tooth is almost always better
A root canal preserves your natural bite, avoids bone loss, and typically costs less than replacing the tooth later.

What Our Patients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a root canal painful?
No — with modern local anesthesia, most patients feel little to no pain during the procedure, and significant relief afterward compared to the pain of the infection.
How many visits will this take?
Most root canal and crown cases are completed in one to two visits, depending on the tooth and complexity of the case.
Is the $750 price really all-inclusive?
Yes, for standard cases it covers the consultation, X-ray, root canal procedure, post, and custom crown. Final pricing is confirmed after your free consultation in case of added complexity.
Do I need a passport to cross the border?
Yes, a valid U.S. passport or passport card is required to cross into Mexico and return to the U.S. A SENTRI pass is also accepted. We'll walk you through exactly what to bring during your consultation.
What happens if I don't treat an infected tooth?
Left untreated, the infection can spread, cause worsening pain, and eventually require extraction. Treating it early with a root canal is almost always the better option.
Will the crown match my other teeth?
Yes. Your crown is custom-crafted to match the size, shape, and shade of your surrounding teeth.
