On your initial visit, expect a comprehensive diagnosis from Dr. Wang, who will outline your treatment alternatives, estimate the number of necessary appointments, and discuss associated costs. This first consultation, devoid of any treatment, is designed for gaining a complete understanding and may span approximately 30 to 45 minutes.

You should continue taking your regular medications unless told otherwise, and remember to bring a list of these medications and their dosages. If you’ve been advised to use antibiotic pre-medication due to certain health conditions, ensure you’re on the appropriate antibiotic on the day of your appointment. If you can safely take ibuprofen (Advil), it can help reduce inflammation before root canal treatment. You may take 400 mg of ibuprofen 2-4 hours before endodontic therapy.

Crescendo Dental’s policy requires full payment when the service is rendered. This is true even if your insurance policy will later reimburse you for covered procedures. The office accepts cash, VISA, MasterCard, debit cards, and personal cheques. Click here to learn more

The GentleWave® Procedure is an innovative alternative to standard root canal treatment. It uses a combination of procedure fluids and energy to clean the deepest, most complex portions of the root canal system. It’s so effective at cleaning the root canal system that there’s less chance of failure over time. With this procedure, the tooth can typically be cleaned and filled in just one session.

Endodontic fees vary depending on the complexity and severity of the treatment needed. This will be determined at the time of your initial consultation appointment. Before any treatment is performed, you will receive an estimate of anticipated charges. Please note that insurance plans typically only cover a portion of specialist endodontic fees
