Root Canal Therapy: The Stress-Free Way to Save Your Tooth

Getting a root canal might sound scary, but modern techniques, and our caring team, ensure a painless, quick experience.

Rather than extracting your tooth, we remove the infection from inside, clean and seal the space, and often top it with a supportive crown. You keep your original tooth structure, avoiding implants or dentures.

Why Choose Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment is the best way to save a damaged or infected tooth and avoid extraction. Here’s why it’s the ideal solution:

  • Preserve Your Natural Tooth: Keep your natural tooth structure and avoid the need for implants or bridges.

  • Relieve Pain: Eliminate the discomfort caused by infection or inflammation.

  • Prevent Further Damage: Stop the spread of infection to surrounding teeth and tissues.

  • Restore Function: Regain the ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

How Our Root Canal Process Works

01

Consultation & Diagnosis

We examine your tooth, take digital X-rays or 3D scans, and confirm if a root canal is the best solution. We also discuss sedation options if you’re anxious.

02

Removal of Infection

Under local anesthesia (or sedation by request), we access the tooth’s pulp chamber and gently remove the infected pulp and bacteria.

03

Cleaning & Disinfection

We thoroughly clean and shape the root canals, using antibacterial solutions to ensure no infection lingers.

04

Sealing & Protection

We fill the canals with a special sealant to prevent reinfection. Often, we recommend placing a crown on top to strengthen the tooth and restore normal function.

05

Aftercare & Follow-Up

Most patients report minimal soreness for a day or two, easily managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. We’ll schedule a check-up to confirm healing and finalize any restorative work.

"you too will be surprised at the quality and care given to you by the entire staff"

Sharon Koning

"I can’t say enough about everyone at Cancun Cosmetic dentistry. I broke my front tooth and chipped 2 others while in Mexico. On recommendation from my resort, I got an appointment the next day.

After x-rays, root canal, post and crown all completed in the 2 weeks I was there my front teeth were fixed.

Everyone was so nice and caring in the entire office. I will go back for regular dental care next time I am in Mexico."

John Schmalzried

"I am in Cancun for many months and while here found “Cancun Cosmetics Dentistry”, at a mall called Plaza Las Americas. One day I just stepped in and asked about their services, I was told that I could have a new and better looking set of teeth, so I decided to go through with it and everything went like clockwork. 

Bottom line is, if you are in need of cosmetic dentistry and wondering where to go I would be willing to say you too will be surprised at the quality and care given to you by the entire staff that you will be happy you had chosen them."

Common Questions Our Patients Ask

Does a Root Canal Hurt?

No, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the treatment. Some patients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity after the procedure, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

How Long Does a Root Canal Take?

A root canal typically takes 1 to 2 appointments, depending on the complexity of the case. Each appointment lasts about 60 to 90 minutes. In some cases, the procedure can be completed in a single visit.

How Long Does a Root Canal Last?

With proper care, a root canal can last a lifetime. The restored tooth should function like a natural tooth, but it’s important to maintain good oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly to ensure its longevity.

Can My Tooth Get Infected After a Root Canal?

While it’s rare, bacteria can sometimes linger if the infection was severe. We may prescribe antibiotics and closely monitor your healing.

What Are the Alternatives to a Root Canal?

The main alternative to a root canal is tooth extraction, which involves removing the damaged tooth entirely. However, extraction often requires additional procedures like implants or bridges to replace the missing tooth, making root canal treatment the preferred option for saving your natural tooth.

Will I Need a Crown After a Root Canal?

In most cases, yes. A crown is often recommended after a root canal to protect the tooth and restore its strength and appearance. Without a crown, the treated tooth may become brittle and more prone to damage.
