Very welcoming and friendly! Love them!
Aspen Dental staff and service were so amazing from Olivia, Kayla, Hailey, Naja & Dr. Brown 🤎 They were all nice and very professional. I love the atmosphere they all made me feel very special from the beginning of my visit until I left. I can't leave out the receptionist. She was very friendly with a very pleasant smile 😊 just like the greeting of a front desk receptionist should be when a customer enter... Gabriella, explanation of the prices of my plans were amazing and she discussed all of my options as well .I will be coming back and sharing all of my experiences with my family and friends.
I had an amazing experience at Aspen Dental today. The entire team provided outstanding customer service and made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. Kayla was extremely kind and professional. She stayed by my side during my visit and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. Dr. Brown was wonderful—very knowledgeable and caring. She explained the procedure clearly and helped me choose the best treatment option for my dental needs. Adrienne did an excellent job explaining my treatment plan and took the time to go over additional options that were not covered by my insurance, which I truly appreciated. I would also like to thank the young lady who took my X-rays. I didn’t catch her name, but she was very sweet and made the X-ray process easy and comfortable. The professionalism, friendliness, and quality of care at Aspen Dental were truly top-notch. Even though this was my first visit, they made me feel like a valued patient. I’m very happy I chose Aspen Dental for my dental care and highly recommend them to anyone looking for great dental service.

Root canal in Southaven, MS

If you’re dealing with ongoing tooth pain or infection, a root canal may be the recommended treatment. At Aspen Dental in Southaven, 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.

At Aspen Dental, your comfort is our priority at every step:
1
Initial assessment
We examine the tooth, take X-rays and explain your care plan.
2
Local anesthesia
The affected tooth and surrounding area are numbed completely, so you remain comfortable throughout the procedure.
3
Removing the infection
We carefully remove the infected pulp.
4
Cleaning and shaping

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.
