Heather Ryan performed a root canal on my upper molar yesterday. This was my first root canal, and I went into the appointment nervous because of all the anecdotes you grow up hearing about how awful root canals are. I am happy to say the experience was painless and in my case did not take that long. Dr Ryan and her assistant were so kind and made me feel at ease. Dr Ryan did a wonderful job, and she communicated well with me on what to expect throughout the procedure. Thank you again for making this experience smooth! I recommend Heather Ryan if you need a root canal!

The team was very competent perfessonal, informative , and I felt very comfortable.

Friendly, informative.

Root canal in Charlotte, NC (Northlake)

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