Experiencing severe tooth pain or sensitivity? You may need a root canal to save your natural tooth and relieve discomfort. At VIP Dental SPAs in West Hollywood, we offer gentle, effective root canal treatments using the latest dental technology in a calming, spa-like environment. Our experienced team is committed to making your root canal as painless and stress-free as possible, so you can get back to smiling confidently.
A root canal is a common dental procedure that treats infection or inflammation within a tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue). When the pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated procedures, a root canal may be necessary to:
Remove the infected tissue
Clean and disinfect the inside of the tooth
Seal it with a filling or crown to restore strength and function
Root canals are essential for preventing tooth extraction and stopping the spread of infection. With modern techniques and sedation options available at VIP Dental SPAs, root canal therapy is no longer something to fear; it’s a path to lasting pain relief.
If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, you may need a root canal:
Persistent toothache or pain when chewing
Sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the source is removed
Swollen or tender gums near the affected tooth
A darkening or discoloration of the tooth
A pimple or bump on the gum (an abscess)
Deep decay or visible damage to the tooth
Don’t delay treatment. The sooner we address the issue, the more likely we can save your natural tooth and avoid further complications.
At VIP Dental SPAs, we believe that every dental treatment should be comfortable and stress-free, even root canals. Here’s what sets us apart:
Gentle Approach: Our experienced dentists use modern, minimally invasive techniques to make your root canal virtually pain-free.
Spa-Like Atmosphere: Enjoy relaxing amenities and a serene environment that makes you feel at ease when you walk in.
Advanced Technology: We use 3D imaging, digital X-rays, and electric rotary tools for precision and faster healing.
Sedation Options Available: We offer nitrous oxide and oral sedation for patients who feel anxious or nervous about treatment.
Experienced Endodontic Care: Whether your root canal is straightforward or complex, we have the expertise to handle it carefully.
Here’s what you can expect when undergoing a root canal at our West Hollywood dental spa:
Consultation and Diagnosis
We begin with a comprehensive exam and digital X-rays to assess the extent of infection. We’ll walk you through the entire process if a root canal is needed.
Numbing and Sedation
Your comfort is our priority. We’ll numb the area with local anesthesia and offer sedation options if needed, so you feel calm throughout the procedure.
Removal of Infected Pulp
We gently remove the damaged or infected tissue inside the tooth and thoroughly clean the root canals.
Filling the Root Canal
After cleaning, we fill the canals with a biocompatible gutta-percha material to seal the space and prevent reinfection.
Tooth Restoration
Depending on the condition of your tooth, we’ll place a crown or filling to restore its shape, strength, and appearance.
In most cases, a root canal can be completed in one to two visits. Each visit typically lasts between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the tooth and the presence of infection.
Contrary to popular belief, root canals are not painful—they’re designed to relieve pain! At VIP Dental SPAs, we use gentle techniques and powerful numbing agents so you won’t feel a thing during the procedure. Most patients report that having a root canal feels similar to getting a cavity filled.
Recovery is generally quick and smooth. Here are a few aftercare tips:
Take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed for any mild soreness.
Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the final crown or filling is placed.
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily.
Attend your follow-up appointments for permanent restoration and checkups.
Most patients are back to their normal routine the next day!

The cost of a root canal can vary depending on the tooth location (front teeth typically cost less than molars) and whether a crown is needed. At VIP Dental SPAs, we:
Work with most major dental insurance plans
Offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees
Provide flexible financing and payment plans to make treatment affordable
We’ll provide a detailed estimate during your consultation and help you navigate your insurance coverage.
In most cases, saving your natural tooth with a root canal is better than removing it. Root canals preserve your bite, smile, and bone structure, whereas extractions can lead to shifting teeth and other complications unless followed by implants or bridges.
Our dentists will help you determine the best treatment option based on your oral health and long-term goals.
Root canals shouldn’t break the bank. We work with major insurance providers and offer in-house financing plans. Call us today to verify your benefits or explore payment options tailored to your budget.
If you’re dealing with tooth pain or signs of infection, don’t wait. Let the trusted team at VIP Dental SPAs in West Hollywood provide fast relief and long-term protection with expert root canal therapy. Call us today or book your appointment online to get started.

“I have been a patient at VIP Spas for several years and was past due for a cleaning. I received the letter from VIP Spas reassuring us that universal precautions have always been a top priority, which I knew to be true from previous visits. We were encouraged to make needed and overdue appointments which I did. The letter continued to state that additional precautions were in place under the current circumstances. I was impressed with the way that my appointment was handled. I felt extremely safe and cared for at all times. At one time, I was gracefully and kindly asked to wait outside until a chair became available so that social distancing could be achieved at all times. The dentist, hygienist, dental assistants, and office staff were kind, professional, and supportive in these crazy times. Under typical circumstances, I would give them an A+ for their care. They surpassed all expectations and alleviated any fears and uncertainty.”
