Root canal in Tomball, TX
Featured Reviews
I called on Monday morning and spoke with a very professional, attentive scheduler that really listened to me and what I was going through. They made me an urgent appointment on my only days off of work tor Wednesday Morning. I was already on antibiotics after going to the emergency room on the weekend for an abscess tooth but was not able to even sleep because of the pain . Right away I noticed it was very clean and professional environment. Check-in was simple and expeditious.
But the truth of it is I went in to my appointment desperate and in pain also very overwhelmed and worried about the financial side of it. They got me right in They were really able to work with me and get me in that chair for an extraction on that same day. The doctor was very awesome and listened to my whole story and the many problem with existing issues other than my abscessed tooth as well and with the office manager (equally incredible) are able to work out a plan for me so for the first time in many years I have hope to fix a lot of issues that have made it almost impossible for me to eat or be without pain so I am very grateful to everyone in this office for their patients and diligence in trying to help me work through what will be a lot of work in the near future but they gave me hope where I felt like there may not be any. I highly recommend this office the thing is they really cared and it was sincere and if anyone’s gonna work on me for so many issues I prefer this office hands-down. This is an honest to God review and I hope it gets read. Thanks and God bless you
Very thorough exam and explanation of work needed. Appreciated payment options since I don't have insurance.
UPDATE: This turned out to be a horrible experience! I do NOT recommend, nor will I ever go back
Very pleased with Aspen service is excellent

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

Do I need root canal treatment?
