Emergency Root Canals in Chicago
Get fast relief from tooth pain with same-day root canal therapy that saves your natural smile.

A severe toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, or swelling near a tooth can all point to one thing—an infection inside your tooth. When the pulp becomes inflamed or infected, the only way to save the tooth may be with a root canal. At Emergency Dentist of Chicago, we perform same-day root canals to relieve pain, stop the infection, and preserve your natural tooth—often in just one visit.
Despite their reputation, modern root canals are no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Using digital X-rays and advanced tools, we precisely target the infected area, remove the damaged pulp, clean and seal the canals, and restore the tooth with a temporary or permanent filling or crown.
Delaying treatment can allow the infection to spread, potentially resulting in tooth loss or systemic complications. That’s why we act fast to assess your condition and begin treatment the same day when possible. We offer sedation options to keep you calm, and our caring team is here to answer every question.
Don’t suffer through tooth pain—book an appointment now for emergency root canal treatment in Chicago. The sooner we treat it, the better your chance of saving the tooth.

The Benefits of Emergency Root Canals
Fast Pain Relief

Saves Your Natural Tooth

Prevents Spread of Infection
Left untreated, a tooth infection can spread to your jaw or bloodstream. A root canal stops the infection at its source.
