Root canal treatment in Winnipeg
When the inside of a tooth is infected, a root canal cleans it out and seals it. Our general dentists do most root canals here; when a tooth is complex, we refer you to an endodontist.

Root canal treatment: common questions
Is a root canal painful?
We freeze the tooth first. Most people say it feels like a long filling.
Can you pull the tooth instead?
Sometimes that is the better choice, and we will tell you. Keeping your own tooth usually works better for chewing.
