24/7 Dental Emergencies
Martensville Dental uses evidence-based protocols guided by CDA standards to manage pain, treat pulp infections, and protect the natural tooth whenever possible. Patients from Langham, Warman, Dalmeny, Aberdeen, Radisson, and North Saskatoon turn to us for clear, reliable endodontic treatment that prioritises patient comfort at every step.
A root canal, or endodontic therapy, is used to treat infection in the tooth pulp; the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. Left untreated, a pulp infection can result in abscesses, bone loss, or more widespread health issues.
Root canal therapy may help:
A well-timed root canal can help you avoid more complex procedures. We use trusted, researched techniques to carry out treatment safely and with your comfort in mind.
You may need a dental root canal service if you’re experiencing:
If you notice any of these symptoms of a root canal, we recommend booking an examination as soon as possible. Our team can assess the tooth, identify the source of pain or infection, and explain your options clearly.
We approach each root canal procedure in our dental clinic with care and attention to detail. It’s a routine treatment guided by current standards and designed to control pain, treat the infection, and make sure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
We start with a thorough consultation, reviewing your dental history and examining the tooth to assess if a root canal is needed.
Before we begin, we’ll numb the area using local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort and sensitivity.
A small opening is made in the tooth to remove the infected pulp. The canals are then cleaned, shaped, and disinfected for sealing.
We fill and seal the cleaned canals with a biocompatible material to prevent further infection.
Root canals have a reputation for being painful, but most patients find the procedure no more uncomfortable than a standard filling. We numb the tooth and surrounding gum with local anaesthetic, so you should feel little more than pressure while we work.
Some pain after root canal treatment is normal in the days following the procedure. It’s typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter medication. We’ll provide you with specific instructions on how to care for your tooth and manage any discomfort.
There are two primary ways to treat a severely damaged or infected tooth: root canal therapy and tooth extraction. Both are valid clinical options depending on the situation.
A root canal helps save the infected tooth. It supports long-term chewing function and helps maintain natural alignment. Generally, it allows patients to keep their natural teeth longer.
Tooth extraction may be appropriate when the tooth cannot be restored or poses ongoing issues. In these situations, we’ll discuss replacement options such as a dental bridge or implant to help restore function and appearance.
We consider the full picture, including your symptoms, the condition of the tooth, and your long-term oral health goals. Whether preserving the natural tooth or planning for a safe removal, we’ll help you make a well-informed decision that suits your needs.
As part of your root canal aftercare, we recommend:
We may also suggest placing a crown over the tooth once healing is underway.
Our team will provide clear root canal recovery tips and remain available if you have any questions during your recovery. We want you to feel confident in caring for your tooth and knowing what to expect next.
Martensville Dental Clinic is committed to creating a positive, low-stress experience for every patient. From the moment you walk through the door, you’ll be treated with care, patience, and respect. Whether you’re nervous about a procedure or simply want to feel more informed, we’ll take the time to listen to your concerns and guide you at your pace.

You may need a root canal if you’re experiencing persistent tooth pain, lingering sensitivity, swelling, or gum tenderness near a tooth. A proper diagnosis from your dentist is the only way to confirm if it’s required.
A standard root canal usually takes one to two appointments, depending on the condition of the tooth. Each visit may last 60 to 90 minutes. Complex cases or molars may require more time.
In addition to root canals, we provide general dentistry, dental implants, crowns, hygiene care, and more. Visit our Services page to learn more about the full range of treatments we offer.
Mostly, yes. A crown helps protect the treated tooth, especially if it’s a molar or has lost a large portion of its structure. It helps restore strength, stability, and function.
You may experience temporary sensitivity, mild swelling, or discomfort for a few days. These effects are typically short-lived. Your dentist will provide specific aftercare instructions to support a smooth recovery.
Root canal fees vary depending on the tooth involved and the complexity of the treatment. We’re happy to provide a cost estimate after your consultation and can discuss payment options if needed.
