Still worried about the actual procedure? Let 209 NYC Dental clear your mind: A root canal procedure is performed when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected, inflamed, or dies.

Please note that our doctors use 3D scanners. Instead of the dental impression shown in the video below, your dentist will use a digital wand. Additionally, since we utilize 3D scanners, the impression time is significantly shorter. Your overall experience is much more pleasant.

At 209 NYC Dental, your care doesn’t end after we treat your pain. Our specialists work closely with restorative dentists and prosthodontists to ensure we rebuild your tooth properly. You can count on 209 NYC Dental to have the technology and tools required for comprehensive dental treatment.

Causes of these conditions include deep decay, a fracture in the tooth, or trauma to the tooth. The procedure for a root canal in NYC involves making a small access opening in the tooth after administering dental anesthesia. Using small, thin, sterile instruments called endodontic files, the dentist then cleans and shapes the small, thin canals of the tooth.

After the canal(s) is/are cleaned and shaped, a biocompatible material, called gutta-percha, is placed within the canal(s) with a special adhesive cement to make sure that no other bacteria or debris enter the canal(s). After completion of the root canal procedure, your dentist will determine if a post and crown will be required to restore the tooth.

Because our root canal specialists use cutting-edge technology to perform procedures, they’re able to detect even the smallest canal branches that the naked eye could easily miss. This level of precision helps prevent our patients from reinfections and improves their long-term outcomes.

We also utilize state-of-the-art rotary endodontic tools, which enable faster and more consistent cleaning of your canals, resulting in less time spent in the dental chair and greater comfort.

 

Trust the 209 NYC Dental team to utilize a minimally invasive approach to root canals in NYC. We’ll also work to preserve as much of your remaining teeth as possible, helping to ensure you maintain superior dental function and aesthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions About Root Canals in NYC

How much does a root canal cost in NYC?

The cost of a root canal in NYC varies based on whether you have dental insurance, the complexity of your procedure, and the location of the affected tooth. For instance, anterior (front) teeth are typically easier for a root canal specialist in NYC to access and work on compared to a molar that’s located further back in the mouth.

At 209 NYC Dental, we strive to provide every patient with affordable care and transparent pricing. We also offer financing options and flexible payment plans to help make treatment affordable for everyone, including those paying root canal costs without insurance in NYC.

Is a root canal a dental emergency?

Typically, most root canals are dental emergencies because they involve a patient’s infected tooth or teeth. Root canals in NYC or anywhere else will not resolve on their own, and the condition will worsen over time. If you leave this situation untreated, it could soon result in severe pain and the need for emergency dental services from a root canal orthodontist.

How many root canal appointments will I need?

Most of these dental ailments are fully treatable with a single root canal appointment. However, more complex procedures may require multiple appointments. However, rest assured that 209 NYC Dental always aims to complete your dental procedure in as few appointments as possible while treating you in a comfortable setting.

Testimonials

I was very lucky to have had a referral for this Dental Practice. From the wonderful staff at the front desk, who were very helpful and those who checked on my insurance to see if I was covered and this was all before I even had the actual appointment. This was my first time for a visit and I was greeted as if I had been going there forever. I was informed of what to expect and after I filled out my paperwork a lovely young lady came so I could have my x-rays which went well; then the hygienist came and got me - she looked over my x-rays and asked me some questions and then proceeded to clean my teeth. She did a wonderful job. Then the dentist came in for further examination and discussion of what my next steps should be. He was a wonderful doctor. This was a wonderful experience. Before today I was with the same dentist office for approximately 40 years and always adored them unfortunately, they retired. So, I am extremely thrilled to have found such a wonderful dental office and staff at 209 NYC Dental. I look forward to building a lasting relationship.

Dr Wang is the best periodontist I’ve seen in nyc! He went above and beyond to fully explain all my options for my wisdom tooth and even when I had follow up questions after the visit, was available to discuss over the phone. Will definitely recommend to my friends and come back! Thanks Dr.Wang! 🙏
