At Smile Boutique Group in Beverly Hills, CA, we understand how important it is to maintain a healthy, pain-free smile. One of the most effective ways to address severe tooth pain and preserve your natural teeth is through Root Canal Treatment. Our team of highly qualified dental specialists specializes in performing this essential procedure with ease, care, and accuracy.
We are here to make sure you receive the best dental care possible, regardless of whether you have been recommended to have root canal therapy or are experiencing chronic tooth pain.
Root Canal Treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure designed to treat infection or inflammation inside the tooth. The objective is to save your natural tooth by extracting the injured or infected pulp (the innermost layer of the tooth) and sealing it to prevent further infection.
A root canal procedure can:
You may require a root canal if you experience the following symptoms:
If you notice any of these signs, contact Smile Boutique Group immediately for a consultation.
Opting for a Root Canal Treatment at Smile Boutique Group comes with several benefits:
At Smile Boutique Group, we follow a meticulous process to ensure your root canal treatment is effective and as comfortable as possible. The procedure involves 3 primary steps, which can be finished in one to three sessions, depending on the complexity of your case.
The first step focuses on cleaning the root canal. To reach the injured pulp, your dentist will first numb the area with a local anesthetic before making a tiny incision on the tooth’s surface. Using specialized tools, the infected or dead tissue is carefully removed. By removing the cause of the discomfort and illness, this step prepares the ground for the following phase. We also provide sedation solutions to help people who are anxious about their dental appointments feel more comfortable.
Next, the hollow space inside the tooth is cleaned, shaped, and sealed. The dentist uses advanced irrigation solutions to thoroughly disinfect the area, removing any lingering bacteria. Once clean, the canals are shaped and filled with a biocompatible, rubber-like material to prevent reinfection. The canals are completely sealed with adhesive cement. At this stage, the tooth is no longer “alive,” as the nerve tissue has been removed, but the treatment stops any further pain or infection.
The final step is restoring the tooth to its full functionality and appearance. Because the tooth no longer contains its natural pulp, it relies on the surrounding ligament for nourishment, which is sufficient but can make the tooth more brittle over time. To protect it, the dentist will either place a filling or a custom-made crown. A crown is typically recommended for teeth subjected to significant chewing forces, such as molars. You should refrain from biting or chewing on the treated tooth until you get a crown or filling done. Once the restoration is complete, the tooth will regain its strength and can be used as before.
At Smile Boutique Group, we tailor the treatment timeline to the needs of each patient. While many root canal procedures are completed in a single visit, complex cases, such as those with curved canals, multiple canals, or significant infections, may require additional appointments. Throughout the process, we prioritize your comfort and work to ensure a seamless and effective outcome.
Our approach to root canal treatment emphasizes precision, care, and the use of advanced technology to deliver long-lasting results. After the procedure, you will have a restored tooth that feels and works normally, enabling you to smile without discomfort once more.
The cost of dental treatments depends on the complexity of the procedure and individual needs. However, saving a tooth with root canal treatment is generally a cost-effective option compared to alternatives.
While tooth extraction might initially seem less expensive, it often leads to higher long-term costs. An implant or bridge is more costly than a root canal to replace the lost tooth. Additionally, extraction can cause other complications, such as misaligned teeth (malocclusion) or difficulties with chewing, which may require further corrective treatments.
Investing in a root canal not only preserves your natural tooth but also helps maintain your oral health and functionality, making it a practical and valuable solution.

You can eat after 30 to 45 minutes of the root canal procedure, allowing time for the temporary filling to set. However, it’s best to wait until the effect of anesthesia wears off to avoid accidentally biting your cheek or tongue.
While it varies by individual factors, a root canal performed by a skilled endodontist can typically last 10 years or more, allowing you to preserve your tooth and maintain oral health for the long term.
With the right care, the treated tooth can last a lifetime, even though it may be a little weaker. A crown or filling helps protect and strengthen the tooth after a root canal.
