At Hartzel Dental in St. Catharines, Dr. Ahmed Sabri and our team provide root canal treatments designed to save your natural teeth and relieve pain caused by infection or decay. While root canals may sound intimidating, modern techniques make them comfortable, efficient, and highly effective.
Our goal is to preserve your natural tooth whenever possible, helping you avoid extractions and maintain a healthy, confident smile.
A root canal may be necessary when the soft tissue inside your tooth (the pulp) becomes infected or inflamed. Common symptoms include: Severe tooth pain or sensitivity Swelling around the gums A darkened or discolored tooth Prolonged pain when chewing or biting If left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to more serious oral health problems.
At Hartzel Dental, we start with an exam and digital X-rays to confirm if a root canal is the best solution. During treatment, Dr. Ahmed Sabri carefully removes the infected pulp, disinfects the root canals, and seals the tooth with a durable filling. Most patients complete treatment in one to two visits. To restore full strength and function, a dental crown may be recommended after root canal therapy
With today’s advanced dental technology, root canal therapy feels no more uncomfortable than a routine filling. At Hartzel Dental in St. Catharines, our priority is your comfort and long-term oral health.
