Root Canals
How do you know if you need a root canal?
The necessity of a root canal arises from issues such as decay, trauma, or severe infection of the tooth's pulp. When the tooth is deeply decayed or damaged, it exposes the nerve, leading to unbearable pain. Dr. Darren Simpson and our team use advanced diagnostic techniques, including x-rays, to identify the root of the problem, ensuring you get the treatment you need in a timely manner.
How much does a root canal cost?
The cost of a root canal varies based on the severity of the issue and the specific tooth affected. However, investing in this procedure can save you money in the long run by preventing more complicated dental issues or the need for replacements like crowns or even dentures. Edison Park Smiles strives to provide the best quality service at a competitive rate. Feel free to contact us at 773-631-5200 to discuss potential costs and payment options.
Root canal Treatment Step By Step
After numbing the affected area using local anesthesia, Dr. Darren Simpson will meticulously remove the decay and the infected pulp. The tooth's canals are then cleaned rigorously to prevent future infections. Once cleaned, these canals are sealed, and in many cases, the tooth is crowned for added protection. At Edison Park Smiles, our root canal procedure is both systematic and tailored to your individual needs.
Root Canal Safety
Your safety is our topmost concern. By adhering to strict sterilization protocols and using state-of-the-art equipment, Edison Park Smiles ensures the root canal procedure is safe and risk-free. Regular check-ups post the procedure further ensures your oral health remains impeccable.

Whether you're from The Loop, Near North Side, Near South Side, Near West Side, West Loop, or South Loop, if you're experiencing such symptoms, don’t hesitate to contact us.
