What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

Is a root canal procedure painful?

Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure.

What is the recovery time after having a root canal procedures?

Patients take about three days to recover after a root canal procedure. Some patients require a week to recover from a root canal procedure.

When can I travel by air after a root canal procedure?

It is safe to travel by air one day after a root canal procedure. Patients should check with their dentist before embarking on their journey. If they feel pain or discomfort, they should postpone their journey until it abates.

What care is required after a root canal procedure?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should not eat until the anaesthetic wears off. They should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food for at least a week. They should avoid eating hard food or sticky food. If swelling occurs they should sleep with their head raised for a few days to bring it down.

What are the alternatives to root canal procedures?

Alternatives to root canal procedures include extractions and pulp capping procedures.

Dr. Melisa Meneses and Dr. Adriana Rios Aguirre were excellent, very professional, knowledgeable, and skilled.

I was very pleased with the outcome. Dr Adriana Rios Aguirre did my teeth cleanings and was very thorough, informative, very patient and highly skilled. Highly recommend them both!

The procedure was seamless and everything was explained to me thoroughlyPeggy, US, 17 11 23

I made an appointment for a crown but over time my tooth had cracked and was very painful. The dentist explained that the only option at that point was to extract the tooth. The procedure was seamless and everything was explained to me thoroughly. They even picked me up at my hotel for the appointment!

The temporary crown is so expertly done you cannot tell I had any dental work performed at allDon, Mexico, 06 09 18

I sustained a sports injury to my upper front teeth as a child almost fifty years ago. My tooth root system started resorbing about 10 years ago and I put off treatment until this week. The tooth loosened and suffered damage after eating a sandwich. The dentists at OdontoKlinik recommended extraction, bone graft, implantation and a crown to repair the damage and fix my smile. Nothing short of simply Wonderful! They saw me as soon as I arrived from the USA on a Saturday afternoon. They fit me into their schedule on a Monday evening and worked on me for four hours late into the night. Then they finished the temporary crown the next afternoon. The temporary crown is so expertly done you cannot tell I had any dental work performed at all. Amazing all this work was done and done very professionally in a few short hours. Dr Claudio and Dr Arlette are second to none in their work, their professionalism and their caring natures. I would highly recommend both of them in a heartbeat. The substantial cost savings from seeking treatment from them is a pure bonus.

Dental Implants $1250 - $2750
Dental implants are substitutes for missing teeths roots and can be used to replace a single missing tooth, to support a bridge, or  to retain a complete denture. Usually 3 visits are required to complete the implant procedure: One for examination, planing and site selection, the second for surgical placement of fixtures and a third, a minimum of 8 weeks later, for placement of the final restorations. Root shaped implants are made of titanium, a metal that has proved to be bio compatible and that can actually integrate with bone to form a strong bond. The newest are zirconium oxide implants which are bio compatible. Mini implants are a different type of implant land are much less expensive. Please contact us for more information.

She did an excellent job of taking my history and evaluationDiane, US, 30 06 24

My visit to Dr Armenta’s office was in May of 2024, following a disappointing experience with my regular dentist in California. I visit Puerto Vallarta twice a year and have had my teeth cleaned at a dental office in town. So I did some extensive research about dental care in Mexico and then specifically in PV. My friend from Aspen recommended Dr. Armenta as she had been to him and was very happy. I called Dr Armenta’s office from California and made an appointment for a Monday. (I was anticipating a root canal) I arrived in PV on Sunday. My evaluation was with a wonderful dentist (not Dr Armenta, and shamefully I do not remember her name). She did an excellent job of taking my history and evaluation, including 3 X-rays. She conferred with the Endodontist and I was given an appointment on Thurs for a root Canal. At the time I was quoted 5300 pecos (Approximately $300-350 US dollars). At my Thurs appointment, I was given an extensive explanation of my situation. There was a chance I would need a tooth extraction. I was shocked and not ready for that. Options were given and we decided on the root canal. She was able to drill through my current new crown for the root canal. However, the root in that tooth had a blockage at the bifurcation. She was able to complete the root canal but requested I return in 4-6 months for a follow-up x-ray. When I checked out I was only charged 4000 pesos per the direction of the Endodontist. My credit card showed $233 for the entire 2 visits. My tooth was great for the first 2 months, but I will be calling back for an appointment to probably have my tooth extracted. As she suspected, and now so do I, the tooth under the crown is probably fractured. Originally it was a crown replacement and that is not uncommon. I am so thankful for her extensive explanation of what was happening with my crown replacement and for giving me an option. I am much more prepared for the extraction now. I will obviously be returning to Dr Armenta’s office for the procedure without any hesitation. By the way, my visit to Dr Armenta’s office in PV, including airfare, hotel, and the cost of the root canal was less money than the quoted price of an evaluation of my tooth in CA, which was $2160. And I had a wonderful week in PV and a thorough explanation of my tooth situation. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Dr. Armenta’s office.
