Relieve Pain, Restore Health & Save Your Natural Tooth
A root canal, also known as endodontic therapy, is a procedure that treats infection or inflammation inside a tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels). When bacteria invade this area due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, severe pain and abscesses can occur.
During the root canal procedure, our dentist removes the infected pulp, carefully cleans and disinfects the canals, and then seals the tooth with a filling or crown. This process relieves pain, prevents reinfection, and saves the natural tooth.
Modern techniques and anesthesia ensure the process is virtually pain-free, making it one of the most common and effective treatments in restorative dentistry.
🩺What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal, also known as endodontic therapy, is a procedure that treats infection or inflammation inside a tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels). When bacteria invade this area due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, severe pain and abscesses can occur.
During the root canal procedure, our dentist removes the infected pulp, carefully cleans and disinfects the canals, and then seals the tooth with a filling or crown. This process relieves pain, prevents reinfection, and saves the natural tooth.
Modern techniques and anesthesia ensure the process is virtually pain-free, making it one of the most common and effective treatments in restorative dentistry.
Types of Root Canal Treatments
✔️ Single-Root Canal Treatment – For front teeth and premolars with a single root; typically straightforward and completed in one visit.
✔️ Multi-Root Canal Treatment – For molars with multiple roots and canals; more complex and often completed in two visits.
✔️ Retreatment Root Canal – Performed when a previously treated tooth becomes reinfected or fails to heal properly.
✔️ Apicoectomy (Surgical Root Canal) – A minor surgical procedure for cases where conventional treatment is not enough, cleaning infection from the root tip.
Each treatment type is chosen based on your individual condition, ensuring precision, comfort, and lasting results.
🩺 Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may need a root canal if you experience:
✔️ Persistent toothache, especially when chewing or applying pressure
✔️ Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
✔️ Swelling or tenderness in the gums near a tooth
✔️ Darkening or discoloration of a tooth
✔️ Deep cavities or cracked teeth exposing the pulp
✔️ Previous dental trauma or failed fillings
If you experience any of these symptoms, you may need a root canal. Our experts perform digital X-rays and 3D scans to confirm diagnosis and recommend the right treatment plan.
🩺 Consultation and Preparation
Before getting a root canal in Costa Rica, proper evaluation and preparation are essential.
✔️ Comprehensive Dental Exam – Includes imaging, sensitivity testing, and an evaluation of tooth structure.
✔️ Treatment Planning – The dentist explains each step of the procedure, estimated visits, and the type of crown restoration (if needed).
✔️ Local Anesthesia – Ensures complete comfort during the procedure.
✔️ Sedation Options – Available for anxious patients for a stress-free experience.
Our specialists prioritize patient comfort, clear communication, and transparent pricing from the first consultation through recovery.
🩺Recovery and Aftercare
✔️ Mild soreness may occur for 1–2 days and is easily managed with over-the-counter medication.
✔️ Avoid hard or sticky foods on the treated side until permanent restoration is placed.
✔️ Maintain excellent oral hygiene and attend follow-up visits for crown placement if required.
✔️ Once fully restored, the treated tooth functions and feels just like any natural tooth.
With proper care, a root-canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime
