Featured Reviews
I’m super grateful to the whole dental care team for maintaining for my smile. Thank you to Jonathan for going above and beyond to find me the best plan for my budget and answering my many questions…Paulette at the front desk who greets me kindly and reminds me of my upcoming visits…Val, for working hard to ensure I’m comfortable and have everything I need…Ahmad and Alex, for assisting with any dental work that needs to be done…Jocelyn, for keeping my teeth wonderfully clean…Dr. Knowlton, for the expertise and safe tooth surgeries. My request for a crown was a bit different but she never made me feel bad about it, and I’m more than happy with the results. I think when I first started at this location, it had a bit of a rotating staff, but now I can recognize everyone with regularity. The office runs smoothly and everyone I’ve interacted with has been incredibly nice. It’s always a pleasure to visit.
I had a really great experience at the dentist today. I went in for an extraction and honestly felt no pain during the whole procedure, which really surprised me in the best way. Everything was explained clearly, and I felt comfortable the entire time.
A special thank you to Ahmed for being so nice, patient, and friendly throughout the visit. He really helped ease my nerves and made the experience way less stressful than I expected.
Overall, I’m really happy with how everything went and would definitely recommend this office to anyone who’s feeling nervous about dental work
Special mention to Valerie eho took rrally good care of me.
Root canal in Orlando, FL - Waterford Lakes
If you’re dealing with ongoing tooth pain or infection, a root canal may be the recommended treatment. At Aspen Dental in Orlando, our care team provides root canal treatment close to home—so you don’t have to wait to feel relief.
What is a root canal?
A root canal is an endodontic treatment that cleans infection inside your tooth so we can save it instead of taking it out. If left untreated, the pulp that has nerves or tissue may die as a result of infection. Left untreated, an infected tooth can cause damage and lead to other issues. At Aspen Dental, your comfort is our priority at every step—we’ll explain everything and keep you comfortable throughout the process. If cost is what’s holding you back, don’t delay your visit—we accept most insurances and financing options—so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Cleaning and shaping
The inside of the tooth is cleaned and prepared.
Sealing the tooth

Do I need root canal treatment?
You might need root canal treatment if you notice: tooth pain that doesn’t go away, sensitivity to hot or cold even after the infection is gone, pain when chewing, a cracked or broken tooth exposing the nerve, swelling in the gums or jaw, or a tooth that looks darker than the rest.
