Why You May Need a Root Canal
A root canal is necessary when the pulp (nerve tissue) inside a tooth becomes infected or inflamed due to:
Deep decay.
Large or untreated cavities.
Cracks or fractures in the tooth.
Repeated dental procedures on the same tooth.
Trauma or injury.

Signs You Might Need Root Canal Therapy
If you’re experiencing any of the following, you may need a root canal:
Persistent or severe toothache.
Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers.
Swelling or tenderness in the gums.
Darkening or discolouration of the tooth.
A small pimple-like bump on the gums (abscess).
If left untreated, these symptoms can worsen — which is why we offer same-day emergency root canals in Oakville.
Benefits of Root Canal Treatment
Root canal therapy is one of the most effective ways to:
- Save your natural tooth instead of extracting it.
- Relieve severe pain and infection.
- Prevent the spread of infection to other teeth or gums.
- Restore full function so you can eat and speak normally.
- Support long-term oral health by maintaining jawbone integrity.
With modern techniques, root canals are virtually painless and highly successful.

Cost & Insurance Options
The cost of a root canal depends on the tooth treated (front vs. molar) and case complexity. At White Orchid Dentistry, we keep treatment accessible with:
- Transparent cost estimates before treatment.
- Direct billing to most insurance providers.
- Acceptance of Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP).
- Flexible payment options for uninsured patients.
The entire process typically takes two appointments unless implant-supported bridges are chosen.
What to Expect During the Root Canal Procedure
Here’s how we make root canal therapy as smooth as possible:
- Consultation & Imaging: We take digital X-rays to identify infection and plan treatment.
- Anesthesia & Sedation: Local anesthesia ensures comfort, and sedation options are available.
- Cleaning & Shaping: The infected pulp is removed, and the canals are cleaned and disinfected.
- Filling & Sealing: Canals are filled with biocompatible material to prevent reinfection.
- Restoration: A crown or filling is placed to strengthen and protect the tooth.
Most root canals can be completed in one or two visits.
