Endodontics at Dundurn Dental Specialty

Thoughtfully Planned Endodontic Care Designed Around Your Individual Needs

At Dundurn Dental Specialty, endodontic treatment is provided within a specialty-focused environment, with careful assessment, precise diagnosis, and structured treatment planning.
Endodontics is centered on treating infection or inflammation within the tooth while protecting natural tooth structure whenever possible. Our approach values clarity, comfort, and coordinated care with your general dentist.
Patients may attend by referral or book a consultation directly.

Why Endodontic Treatment Matters

When the inner tissue of a tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, trauma, or fracture, treatment may be required to relieve discomfort and prevent further complications. Endodontic care may help to:

Address tooth pain or sensitivity

Treat infection within the tooth

Preserve natural teeth

Prevent the need for extraction when appropriate

Early evaluation enables us to work towards an accurate diagnosis and discuss suitable treatment options.

Our Endodontic Services

Treatment recommendations are based on clinical findings and diagnostic imaging.

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal therapy involves removing inflamed or infected tissue from within the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the internal canals, and sealing the tooth to reduce the risk of reinfection.
This procedure is performed with precision and attention to patient comfort.

Root Canal Retreatment

In some cases, a previously treated tooth may call for further evaluation. Retreatment may be considered when symptoms persist or when reinfection occurs.
A comprehensive assessment will determine whether retreatment is appropriate.

Endodontic Surgery (Apicoectomy)

When conventional root canal treatment is insufficient, a minor surgical procedure may be recommended to treat infection at the root tip.

Treatment decisions are guided by clinical evaluation and diagnostic findings.
