Root Canal Treatment - Endodontics
Restoring dental health with care & confidence
When the pulp within your tooth becomes infected due to dental decay or is destroyed by a mouth injury, root canal therapy, also known as endodontics, is required. An abscess could develop as a result of this infection spreading through the root canal system, which would be extremely painful. A tooth may require extraction if root canal therapy is not performed.
To prevent the infection from spreading and to save as much of your tooth as possible, our dentists can undergo root canal therapy. You will be given a local anaesthetic using specialised methods and cutting-edge machinery, and the procedure as a whole ought to feel similar to getting a regular filling put in. The purpose of the procedure is to clean up the root canal of any infection. Following that, the root is cleaned and filled to stop any future infection. The tooth is given a temporary filling and allowed to settle. When all of the infection has disappeared, the tooth is checked again and given a permanent filling. Most root canal treatment courses require two or more visits because it is a skilled and time-consuming process.
