At Inglewood Family Dental in Calgary, we offer root canal treatments to save infected or severely damaged teeth. A root canal is a procedure designed to remove infected soft tissue (pulp) inside the tooth, which, if left untreated, can cause pain, swelling, and even tooth loss.
During the procedure, our skilled dentists carefully clean and disinfect the inside of the tooth and seal it to prevent further infection. This process not only relieves pain but also preserves the natural tooth and restores its function, letting you maintain a healthy smile.

What Impacts Root Canal Prices?
Several factors impact the cost of a root canal treatment:
- Type of Tooth: The location and type of tooth being treated is a major factor. Molars typically cost more due to their complex structure and harder-to-reach location, while front teeth are generally less costly as they have fewer roots and a simpler structure.
- Severity of Infection: The extent of the infection influences the complexity of the procedure. A more severe infection may require additional time and care, impacting the final cost.
- Need for a Crown: Often, a crown is recommended after a root canal to restore tooth strength and function. Crowns vary in cost based on materials, adding to the total expense.
- Number of Appointments Needed: For some cases, multiple visits are required for a successful root canal, especially if the infection is severe or complications arise, which may increase overall costs.

By preserving your natural tooth with a root canal, you avoid the higher costs and recovery time of tooth replacement, saving time, money, and your smile.
