Pain-Free Treatment
Expert Care by Certified Specialists
Advanced Microscope & 3D Imaging
If you have a dying tooth or infected dental nerve, endodontic therapy (root canal treatment) is typically the only way to preserve your tooth. Instead of removing and replacing it, you can extend the function of your tooth by restoring it from the inside.
You might almost think about root canal treatment like a filling that extends deeper into the tooth. It fills the empty nerve chambers down the length of the roots, as opposed to just an opening caused by decay.
Root Canal Treatment Specialists
Endodontists are dentists with an additional 3 years of specialized education in the field of root canal therapy. These root canal specialist experts can efficiently provide high-quality care, even in instances where teeth may be more challenging to treat.
Our Specialists Endodontists, are available in all our clinics to offer you expert root canal treatment if required.
An Endodontist specializes in root canal treatment that involves curved or twisted roots, narrow canals, previous endodontic treatment, and teeth that are more difficult to reach (such as the upper back molars.)
When our root canal procedure is performed by an expert endodontist, you can rest assured that you’ll receive the best, gentlest care possible.
Advanced Endodontic Care
One of the ways our Dubai Endodontists provide the most efficient and comfortable root canal treatment is thanks to our state-of-the-art dental microscope. Dental microscopes allow enhanced, accurate imaging of the internal surfaces of your tooth roots. As such, your root canal treatment is more effective and successful, compared to endodontic therapies performed without a microscope.
Incorporating of a root canal microscope allows us to ensure no lingering infection, attention to any secondary canals, and thorough cleaning of the tooth before the root canal filling is placed. None of these surfaces are visible to the naked eye, so a dental microscope takes your care to the next level for a predictable procedure.
Symptoms of Dying, Abscessed Teeth
- A dental abscess
- Decay that extends into the nerve
- Past trauma, resulting in tooth death
- Chronic dental pain
- Deep cracks or fractured roots
- Significant discoloration, due to tooth death
Root Canal Treatment Procedure
During endodontic therapy, we gently numb your tooth to prevent any sensations or stimuli during the appointment. From there, the nerve chambers are accessed and the tissues inside of them are removed. We use our dental microscope to thoroughly oversee the cleaning inside of each canal. Next, the tooth is filled to seal out any new bacteria. The overall process typically requires one appointment, followed by a dental crown.

What Our Patients Have to Say
I had a root canal today!! The whole experience was pleasant! I was scared. My tooth was complicated as the root was dead and calcified. The dentist was gentle, caring, open and honest. The anesthetic has worn off and I was expecting some pain but there is none. I am really in awe. This is weird to say, but this was one of my best dentist experiences.
Great experience for root canal and crown. Dr Smitha is very sweet and comforting. She put me completely at ease for a procedure that I was dreading.
Thank you so very much for the emergency care. My doctor was super professional showing me everything, and explaining her treatment plan as she worked. Less than a day after my root canal the pain has almost completely gone away. The office was clean, and all COVID-19 protocols were enforced. I highly recommend this dental practice.
Book Your Consultation
Traditional X-rays capture two-dimensional imaging of your teeth. With a root canal, we use 3D CBCT scanning to evaluate the overall tooth structure for microscopic cracks and secondary infection. Contact Dr. Joy Dental Clinic today to reserve an exam at one of our Dubai locations.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can a tooth still function normally after a root canal treatment?
Yes. After a root canal treatment, the tooth can continue to function normally for chewing and biting. Once the tooth is properly restored with a filling or crown, it can remain strong and functional for many years.
-
Why is a dental crown often recommended after a root canal?
A dental crown is often placed after a root canal to protect and strengthen the treated tooth. Since the tooth may become more fragile after the infected pulp is removed, a crown helps restore durability and prevents further damage.
-
Can root canal treatment prevent tooth extraction?
Yes. Root canal treatment is designed to save a natural tooth that has an infected or damaged pulp. By removing the infection and sealing the tooth, the procedure helps avoid extraction and preserves the natural structure of the mouth.
-
What happens if a root canal treated tooth is not restored properly?
If a treated tooth is not restored with a proper filling or crown, it may become weak, prone to fractures, or susceptible to reinfection. Following the dentist’s recommendations for restoration helps ensure long-term success.
-
How many visits are needed to complete the root canal procedure?
The Root canal treatment may take a maximum of 1-2 visits to be completed, depending on the number of canals to be treated and the complexity of the dental condition.
-
Can root canals relieve my dental infection pain?
Yes. Since the dental infection originates inside of the roots of your tooth, the root canal will remove diseased tissues and seal off the chambers, preventing reinfection and the source of tooth pain. Being that the nerve of the tooth is no longer there, it is physically impossible for pain sensations to occur.
-
Do root canals hurt?
A root canal treatment procedure is meant to relieve the source of your dental pain. As with other types of dental treatment, endodontic therapy does not have to be painful. Working with a specialist like an endodontist and having the tooth numbed well ahead of time will prevent unnecessary discomfort.
-
Is a crown necessary after a root canal procedure?
In nearly all root canal cases, a protective dental crown will be required once your endodontic therapy is completed. Our practice has on-site CAD/CAM crown equipment, making it possible to provide same-day ceramic dental crowns for patients who qualify.
-
How do I know if I need a root canal?
A root canal is a necessity if your tooth is dying, abscessed, or has decay that reaches into the nerve chamber. We will use a 3D CBCT scan and X-ray to assess the extent of your dental infection to determine whether you need a root canal.
