Root Canal Treatment

Relieve Pain. Save Your Tooth. Restore Your Smile.

Effective treatment to remove infection, relieve discomfort, protect your natural tooth, and restore your oral health. Our gentle approach helps you feel comfortable and informed at every step.

What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment saves a tooth when the soft pulp inside becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, a crack, or injury. The damaged pulp is gently removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to stop the infection from spreading. It relieves pain and lets you keep your natural tooth instead of having it removed.

Our team uses modern techniques and local anaesthetic to keep you comfortable, and explains every step so you know exactly what to expect.

Who Can Benefit From Root Canal Treatment?

Severe Toothache

Deep Decay or Large Cavity

Swollen or Tender Gums

Lingering Hot/Cold Sensitivity

Cracked or Chipped Tooth

Darkening of a Tooth

What to Expect

Before Treatment

We examine the tooth and take X-rays to assess the infection and plan the right treatment.

During Treatment

We numb the area, remove the infected pulp, then clean, shape, and seal the tooth.

After Treatment

We guide your recovery and may recommend a crown to protect the treated tooth.

General Question

Find quick answers to common questions about our dental services, treatments, and appointments.

What is a root canal?

A root canal is a treatment that removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth. The tooth is then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed, which relieves pain and allows you to keep your natural tooth.

How do I know if I need a root canal?

Common signs include a severe or lingering toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold that doesn't fade, swollen or tender gums, or a darkened tooth. Some infections cause no symptoms, so regular check-ups and X-rays help find problems early.

Is root canal treatment painful?

Root canal treatment is done under local anaesthetic, so most patients feel little discomfort during the procedure. It usually feels similar to having a filling and often relieves the pain caused by the infection.

Will I need a crown afterwards?

Many teeth, especially back teeth, benefit from a crown after root canal treatment to protect them from cracking. Your dentist will assess the tooth and recommend the best way to restore its strength and appearance.
