Advanced root canal treatment

A damaged or infected tooth can cause severe pain and compromise your long-term oral health. Root canal treatment helps remove infection while preserving your natural tooth, protecting your smile for years to come.

At Omni Endodontics, our board-certified Arlington root canal dentists use advanced technology, including 3D CBCT imaging, laser-assisted cleaning, and microsurgical tools, to deliver root canal care that is precise, gentle, and efficient.

Root Canal FAQs

K
L

Does a root canal hurt?

Thanks to modern techniques and sedation, root canal procedures are typically comfortable and similar to getting a filling. Most patients feel little to no pain during the procedure and only mild soreness afterward.
K
L

How many visits will I need?

Most root canal treatments are completed in one or two visits, depending on your specific needs. More complex cases may require a follow-up appointment for optimal results.
K
L

Will I need a crown afterward?

In many cases, yes. A permanent crown helps protect and strengthen the treated tooth long term. Your general dentist will usually handle that step after your root canal is complete.

Do I need a referral?

You can come to our experienced Arlington root canal dentist directly, or we’re happy to work with your general dentist as a referral. We coordinate closely to ensure seamless care.

Will insurance help cover treatment?

Most PPO dental insurance plans cover a portion of root canal therapy; we’ll help verify benefits in advance. Our team will also review costs with you before your visit, so there are no surprises.

What happens if I don’t treat the tooth?

If left untreated, an infected tooth can lead to severe pain, swelling, and spread of infection to other areas, even resulting in tooth loss. Root canal treatment removes the infection and preserves your natural tooth, often preventing the need for more invasive procedures down the line.

What to expect during treatment

  • You'll be welcomed into a quiet, modern office designed to help you feel at ease from the moment you arrive.
  • We’ll take 3D CBCT scans to clearly understand the source of your discomfort and create a precise treatment plan.
  • You’ll be offered sedation options, including nitrous oxide, oral medication, or IV sedation if you need extra comfort.
  • When appropriate, treatment can often be started the same day to help relieve pain as quickly as possible.

Hear from our patients

“I was sent to Dr. Nicholas Leon-Guerrero for a root canal and I’m so glad I listened to my dentist. I was worried it was going to hurt, but he explained everything before starting and made sure I was numb and comfortable. It was done quicker than I expected and by that night I was already feeling back to normal. I wish all dental visits were this smooth.”

“I saw Dr. Yeh for a root canal and she was so gentle I didn’t feel a thing. I had been losing sleep over this for days, but it went so much better than I imagined. By dinner time I was eating like normal again. She really knows how to take care of her patients.”
“I used nitrous for my appointment at Omni Endodontics and it made a huge difference for me. I was relaxed and comfortable the whole time and didn’t feel stressed like I usually do at the dentist. The staff kept checking on me and it honestly made what I thought would be a scary procedure no big deal at all.”
“Dr. Deborah Yeh did my root canal and I can’t believe how easy she made it. I’ve had dental work before that left me sore for days, but this time I didn’t even need pain medicine afterward. She worked with so much care and still got it done in one visit. I walked in nervous and walked out relieved.”
