Root Canal Treatment

Why You Might Need a Root Canal

Severe Tooth Pain or Sensitivity:

If your tooth hurts a lot or feels sensitive to hot and cold, it might be due to inflammation inside the tooth. A root canal can help by removing the inflamed tissue, relieving your pain, and protecting the tooth from further issues.

Infection or Abscess:

A cavity or tooth injury can lead to an infection. If not treated, the infection can spread and cause bigger problems. A root canal removes the infected tissue and stops the infection from spreading.

Saving Your Natural Tooth:

A root canal helps save your tooth, so you don’t have to get it pulled. Keeping your natural tooth helps your bite stay the same and prevents other teeth from shifting.

Preventing Bigger Problems:

Taking care of an issue early with a root canal can save you from needing more serious dental treatments later—saving you time and money..

Our Root Canal Treatment Process

Detailed Exam and Diagnosis:

We start by thoroughly examining your tooth with tests and radiographs. This helps us decide if a root canal is the right choice.

Pain-Free Procedure: 

We use local anaesthesia to make sure you don’t feel any pain during the procedure.

Removing the Inflammation or Infection: 

Our clinicians carefully remove the inflamed or infected tissue from inside your tooth, then clean and disinfect the area to make sure the problem is completely gone.

Sealing and Restoring the Tooth: 

After the procedure, we seal the tooth to protect it from future issues. Sometimes, we may recommend a crown to restore the tooth’s function and help seal it from further issues.

  • What to Expect After Root Canal Treatment

    Quick Recovery, Minimal Discomfort:

    Most patients recover quickly after a root canal with very little discomfort. We’ll give you easy-to-follow instructions to help you heal quickly.

    Follow-Up Care:

    We’re with you every step of the way! We’ll schedule a follow-up visit to check on your healing and make sure the problem is completely gone.

    Restoring Your Smile: 

    If your tooth needs a crown or other restoration, we’ll walk you through your options and help you choose the best solution to keep your smile looking great.

    What Happens if It’s a Complex Case?

    In some cases, a root canal can be more complex, especially if the tooth has unusual anatomy or if the infection is more severe. If we find that your case is particularly complicated, we may refer you to either a dentist with a special interest in Endodontics (Root Canal Treatment) or Endodontist (Specialist) for further treatment. These clinicians usually have advanced training in performing root canals on challenging cases, ensuring the best possible outcome for your tooth.

    Root Canal Treatment Case Study

    Frequently Asked Questions

    With modern dental techniques and local anaesthesia, a root canal is no more painful than having a filling. Our goal is to make the procedure as comfortable as possible for you.

    Most root canal treatments can be completed in one or two appointments, depending on the complexity of the case. We’ll let you know what to expect during your initial consultation.

    After a root canal, you might experience some mild discomfort or sensitivity, but this typically subsides within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relief is usually sufficient to manage any discomfort.
    After a root canal, we often recommend placing a crown on the treated tooth to protect it and restore its appearance. The crown will be custom-made to match the colour and shape of your natural teeth.
    While root canal treatment is highly effective at removing infection, it’s important to follow good oral hygiene practices and attend regular check-ups to ensure the treated tooth remains healthy.
