If you’ve ever heard someone say the words “root canal,” you might immediately think of pain or stress. But here’s the truth: modern root canals are nothing like the horror stories you’ve heard.
At Eastpoint Endodontics in Lehi, Utah, we help patients every day overcome their fears and leave feeling surprised by how comfortable and easy their root canal treatment actually was.
Root Canals Relieve Pain — They Don’t Cause It
One of the biggest misconceptions about root canals is that they’re painful. In reality, the infection inside your tooth is what’s causing your discomfort — not the treatment itself.
A root canal’s purpose is to remove that infection, clean the tooth, and stop the pain for good. Most patients say the experience feels no worse than getting a regular dental filling.
Thanks to modern anesthetics and technology, root canal therapy today is quick, gentle, and virtually pain-free.
Advanced Technology Makes a Big Difference
At Eastpoint Endodontics, we use state-of-the-art tools to make every procedure faster, safer, and more comfortable.
Our EdgePro® Laser System allows for advanced cleaning and disinfection of the root canal system — eliminating bacteria more effectively while minimizing discomfort and healing time.
We also use:
- 3D imaging (CBCT) for precise diagnosis
- Operating microscopes for enhanced accuracy
- Digital X-rays for reduced radiation and instant results
These technologies help ensure the best possible outcome with minimal stress or discomfort.
Sedation Options for a Relaxing Experience
If dental anxiety has kept you from getting the care you need, you’re not alone — and we can help.
Eastpoint Endodontics offers safe sedation options to help patients relax during their treatment. From mild anti-anxiety medication to stronger options for more nervous patients, we’ll tailor your care to make you completely comfortable from start to finish.
Many patients tell us afterward, “That was so much easier than I expected.”
Saving Your Tooth Is Worth It
Root canals aren’t just about relieving pain — they’re about saving your natural tooth. Keeping your original tooth prevents bone loss, maintains your bite alignment, and allows you to smile, chew, and speak naturally for years to come.
By choosing a root canal instead of extraction, you’re choosing comfort, function, and long-term health.
