Benefits Of Working with Warmstone Family Dentistry
Saving your natural tooth is always the most desirable option both for your health and financially in the long run. You will experience a better quality of life versus having a gap or dentures. Another benefit is that it would be cheaper than an implant which would be the closest replacement if you had to lose the tooth. Implants while extremely beneficial can cost thousands of dollars while maintaining your natural tooth is the best option and cheapest way to maintain your quality of life.
A root canal will take away the extreme pain and most importantly reduce further risk by removing the infection. If not treated, not only it will damage your oral health but could have an affect on the rest of your body as well.

Steps to a Root Canal
1 Freezing (local anesthesia) is administered.
2 For hygienic purposes to protect the tooth from further bacteria while being worked on, a rubber dam is placed around the tooth.
3 The dentist cleans out the canal by removing the infection (pulp) from the tooth. Once cleaned the canal is filled and sealed.
In most cases a crown is needed after a root canal. At Warmstone Family Dentistry we use state-of-the-art technology called CEREC. The CEREC machine allows us to create and place the crown in the same visit. There is no need for a temporary crown which can be inconvenient and uncomfortable. This will provide a more comfortable fit and natural look & feel. Contact us today to find out more.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of getting a root canal?
Contact our clinic today to learn more about why a root canal might be the best option for you.
How do I know if I need a root canal?
- Severe tooth pain and/or tooth sensitivity that worsens over time
- Swollen of tender gums near the infected area and bad breath
- Puss-filled pimple around the gum
- Abscess in the jawbone
- Darkening of the tooth
If you are experiencing any of the above symptoms, please contact Warmstone Family Dentistry so that our team can assess whether you are in need of a root canal procedure.
What should I expect after a root canal?
Due to the nature of a root canal procedure, it will be normal to feel tenderness around the area where the root canal procedure was performed. Our dentists and hygienists will walk you through the necessary steps to ensure a smooth recovery after a root canal. It is recommended to be cautious around the tooth when eating until you have fully healed. Aggressive chewing and food particles can cause another infection in the tooth or cause the tooth to break before being fully healed.
Contact our clinic today for more information about root canals!
What is involved during a root canal procedure?
A root canal procedure is performed to save a natural tooth that is inflamed or infected. Our skilled dentists administer a local anaesthetic to make sure the procedure is as pain-free as possible. We place a rubber dam around the tooth being worked on to prevent any further bacteria. The canal is then cleaned out by removing the infection and then filled and sealed.
In most cases, we recommend a dental crown be used to protect the root canal. At Warmstone, we use sate-of-the-art technology called CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics). We are able to take impressions quickly and create a precisely fitted dental crown all in one appointment.
Our clinic aims to provide a stress-free spa-like atmosphere for our clients. Contact us today if you are interested in our root canal procedure.
How can I prepare for a root canal procedure?
Like most dental procedures there are certain considerations to follow to prepare for a safe procedure and to ensure a smooth recovery. Since we use a local anaesthetic for the procedure, it is important that you eat before arriving at your appointment. Anaesthetics can leave you feeling numb for a few hours, which can make eating difficult. We also recommend you get a good night’s sleep before the procedure and stay well rested after the procedure. This can contribute to a smooth recovery since our bodies naturally “repair” themselves when asleep or in a restful state.
