Dental Root Canal Treatment in Mississauga

What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure that removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, cleans the space, and seals it to stop infection from spreading. Dental root canal treatment in Mississauga at Revive Dental Clinic is aimed at eliminating pain and saving your natural tooth rather than extracting it. Root canal treatment and root canal procedure are both terms for the same underlying process a routine part of general dentistry when a tooth's nerve becomes infected or damaged.
Our Root Canal Process
Diagnosis & X-ray
We take an X-ray to confirm the infection and assess the tooth's root structure before planning treatment.
Cleaning the Infection
The infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed from inside the tooth.
Filling & Sealing
The cleaned space is filled and sealed to prevent bacteria from re-entering the tooth.
Crown Placement (If Needed)
Many teeth, especially molars, need a crown afterward to protect the tooth from cracking under normal chewing pressure.
Is a Root Canal Painful?
Local anesthesia numbs the area during treatment, so most patients find the procedure itself no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Any pain you were experiencing beforehand from the infection itself typically starts easing shortly after treatment, rather than during it.
Root Canal vs. Extraction
When a tooth can still be saved, root canal treatment is usually the better choice over extraction. Removing the tooth might seem simpler upfront, but it then needs to be replaced with a dental implant or bridge to restore chewing function and prevent surrounding teeth from shifting, which typically costs more overall than treating and keeping your natural tooth in the first place.
Cost, Insurance & OHIP
Root canal cost depends on which tooth is treated front teeth typically run $500–$900, premolars $700–$1,000, and molars $900– $1,500 or more, since molars have multiple canals and take longer to treat. Most teeth also need a crown afterward, which can add $1,200–$2,000+ depending on the material.
OHIP does not cover root canal treatment for adults in Ontario dental care generally falls outside provincial health coverage. Revive Dental Clinic accepts the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) for eligible patients, and we'll walk you through private insurance or payment options before treatment begins.
