An endodontist is a dentist who has received extra training to treat the inside of the tooth, especially the dental pulp and nerves. While a general dentist can handle many dental issues, an endodontist specifically focuses on treating teeth that are deeply damaged or infected. They use advanced techniques and equipment to treat more complicated cases, making sure the inside of your tooth stays healthy.
Unlike general dentists who handle routine dental care and basic dental procedures, endodontists are experts in performing root canals and other treatments that involve the tooth’s inner structures. If you have a more serious issue inside your tooth, your general dentist may refer you to an endodontist for specialized care.

When the inside of your tooth, called the pulp, gets infected or damaged, root canal therapy is needed. During the procedure, the endodontist carefully cleans out the infected tissue, disinfects the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further problems. Root canals help relieve pain and save teeth that might otherwise need to be pulled out.
When a root canal alone isn’t enough to fix the problem, you’ll need apicoectomy or endodontic surgery. In an apicoectomy, the endodontist removes the tip of the tooth’s root and any infected tissue around it. After that, they seal the end of the root to prevent further infection. This surgery can save a tooth that might not respond to a regular root canal.
Sometimes, a tooth that had a root canal before can develop issues again. In these cases, an endodontist can retreat the root canals by reopening the tooth, cleaning it out again, and re-sealing it. Retreatment gives your tooth a second chance to heal and stay healthy.

FAQs
At our Newmarket clinic, we specialize in root canal therapy, endodontic retreatment, and care for dental trauma. Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth and alleviate discomfort through these advanced treatments.
Endodontic treatment, commonly known as a root canal, becomes necessary when the tooth’s pulp—the innermost part containing nerves and blood vessels—is infected or damaged. This procedure removes the affected pulp, cleans the canal, and seals it, effectively saving the natural tooth and preventing further issues.
With modern dental techniques and local anesthesia, root canal treatments are generally painless, comparable to receiving a standard filling. Patients often report minimal discomfort during the procedure.
The cost for endodontic treatment in Newmarket typically ranges from $800 to $2,100, depending on factors like the tooth’s location and the complexity of the procedure. We recommend consulting with our team for a personalized estimate based on your specific needs.
Most root canal procedures are completed in one to two visits, with each session lasting approximately 60 to 90 minutes. The exact duration depends on the tooth’s condition and the intricacy of the treatment required.
Yes, we provide emergency endodontic services in Newmarket. If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain or have suffered dental trauma, our team is ready to offer prompt and effective care to address your urgent needs.
Whether a crown is needed after a root canal depends on how much of the natural tooth structure remains. If more than half of the tooth is compromised, a crown is usually recommended to restore strength and prevent fractures. For front teeth or cases with minimal tooth loss, a filling may be sufficient. Your dentist will assess your specific case to determine the best option.
Yes, we provide sedation options to ensure a comfortable and stress-free experience during endodontic treatments. Our team will discuss the best sedation method for your specific needs to help alleviate any anxiety.
Many dental insurance plans partially cover endodontic treatments like root canals. Coverage varies, so it’s advisable to review your specific policy. We also offer financing options to assist with any out-of-pocket expenses.
Yes, a tooth may require retreatment if it doesn’t heal properly or becomes reinfected after the initial root canal. Factors such as complex canal anatomy or delayed placement of the final restoration can contribute to the need for additional treatment.
