What is a root canal?

A root canal removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, then cleans, disinfects and seals the canals. It is done to save a natural tooth that would otherwise need to come out. Most back teeth need a crown afterward.

Root canal: specialist or general dentist?

Many general dentists perform root canals, especially on front teeth and premolars. Endodontists are root canal specialists with 2–3 extra years of training. They are often recommended for molars with curved or hidden canals, retreatments, and teeth with unusual anatomy.

19 of Phoenix's 98 clinics offering root canals have an endodontist on staff. See endodontists in Phoenix

How much does a root canal cost in Phoenix?

Typical ranges in USD for Phoenix, AZ. Your price depends on the tooth, the case and the clinic.

Which Phoenix clinics offer same-day root canals?

Does a root canal hurt?

Most patients say a root canal feels similar to getting a filling, because the tooth is numbed with local anesthetic. The infection beforehand is often more painful than the procedure. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is common and usually eases with over-the-counter pain relief.

Which Phoenix root canal dentists are open on Saturday?
