Root canals might have a bad reputation, but they can you patients out of pain and save the tooth. Dr. Parsa has an instrument to freeze the tooth more directly.
Your Comfortable Choice for Root Canals in Airdrie
Root Canals in Airdrie
It’s a common belief that root canals are painful, but with the proper medication and treatment, root canals can be as pain-free as a filling. At Yankee Valley Dental, we do our best to ensure your Airdrie root canal is as comfortable as possible.
A root canal can be the difference between keeping your natural tooth and having to pull it out, so it is important to get it done properly. If you have a tooth that is badly decayed, damaged or infected a root canal may repair and save your tooth, thereby reducing the pain and restoring your tooth to functioning normally.
What is a Root Canal?
The enamel, the outer most layer of your tooth, is very hard. The next layer is the dentin and in the very centre of the tooth is the pulp, where you find nerves, blood vessels and soft tissue. If the pulp becomes inflamed or infected, you will likely need a root canal. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and filled.
We offer dentistry to patients of all ages, putting the utmost importance in the quality of work that we provide.
If you don’t get the infection fixed, the tissue can become inflamed and abscesses may form (a pocket of pus around the root). An abscess does not heal itself and if not looked at by a dentist can spread to your jaw, neck and head. If you have significant pain or notice swelling in your cheek, jaw or throat you should seek immediate treatment.
Get rid of the pain, save your tooth and get it back to looking and working normally with an Airdrie root canal with Yankee Valley Dental.

Why Choose Our Airdrie Dental Clinic?
We follow the 2018 Alberta Dentists Fee guide, making dental treatment more affordable for our patients. Our office offers direct insurance billing, which means that at the end of your appointment, you are only responsible for paying the part of the treatment that your dental insurance is not covering.
We never want there to be surprises for our patients. Our friendly staff will help you look into your dental insurance plan to better understand your dental coverage prior to treatment.
We also understand that life is busy, and that taking time off work is not always an option. We have evening and weekend hours to accommodate patients after work and school.
Dr. Parsa will always give out her personal phone number after extractions, dental implants, or root canal therapy.
Dr. Parsa wants her patients to be able to get a hold of her if there is even small a chance that they will be in pain over the weekend. At Yankee Valley Dental, we want to ensure that our patients are never left without the care of a dental professional.
Emergencies can have bad timing! We are one of the few offices that are open on long weekends. We close for statutory holidays such a New Year’s Day and Good Friday. We will endeavour to be open on every Saturday including long weekends, as the majority of other offices in town will be closed.
Your comfort is our priority. We have patient neck pillows and blankets so that you can get your dental work done comfortably.
Dr. Parsa will do a very comprehensive new patient exam, which includes checking the patient’s temporomandibular joints, muscles, lymph nodes, tonsils and the thyroid gland among others. If there is a lot to be discussed, Dr. Parsa offers a complimentary consult appointment to go over the findings. The consultation appointment is only for patients who would like further information and entirely optional!
We have a train set in the reception area which is a huge hit with our pediatric patients! We have televisions in each operatory your little ones can be watching Disney Movies while you are getting your dental work done, or simply colouring in our colouring books
Testimonial of Our Service
I saw Dr. Parsa to get my wisdom teeth removed when she was working in Calgary. I had been told by another general dentist that I have to see the specialist to get them out but put it off because it was hundreds of dollars just for the consultation. I was in soooo much pain when I saw Dr. Parsa and was so relieved when she was able to take them out for me. It saved me a lot of money since my insurance covered her fees. I also had sedation since I was really nervous about the procedure and don’t think I could have gone through it without. So grateful that she was able to help me out. I highly recommended Dr. Parsa anyone looking for a dentist!
