At Comfort Care Dental Clinic in downtown Montreal, we perform this treatment using modern, safe, and advanced techniques – including laser-assisted root canals – to restore your comfort and protect your smile.

When Do You Need a Root Canal?
Here are a few signs you might need a root canal:
- Persistent pain that requires frequent painkillers
- Swelling in or around a tooth, possibly with fever
- Pain when eating hot foods or drinking hot liquids that is relieved by cold
If you answered yes to any of these, we recommend booking a consultation to evaluate your symptoms.
How Is a Root Canal Treatment Performed?
Here’s what to expect during your treatment with Dr. Miki:
- A local anesthetic is applied to freeze the area.
- A rubber dam is placed around the tooth to keep it dry and clean.
- An opening is made to access the root canals and pulp.
- Using fine dental instruments and laser technology, we clean and disinfect the root canals.
- The canals are then filled and sealed with special materials.
- The tooth is restored with a final filling or crown to seal it completely.
Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?
Thanks to advancements in dental technology, root canal treatment is usually painless. Most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure. Mild sensitivity may follow but typically resolves quickly, especially if you avoid chewing on the treated tooth and follow Dr. Miki’s instructions for care.
Remember: preserving your natural tooth is always better than replacing it, both for your oral health and your wallet.

Did You Know?
There are misleading claims online about the safety of root canals. These stem from outdated 1930s theories that have been scientifically disproven. Root canal treatment is safe and supported by decades of research. To learn more, visit: Root Canal Safety and Endodontics Fact Sheet.
