A root canal saves an infected or damaged tooth that might otherwise need extraction. Our advanced techniques ensure a comfortable experience and lasting results while maintaining the integrity of your natural tooth.
Root canal treatment removes bacteria and infected tissue from within the tooth, cleans the inner canals, and seals them to prevent reinfection. This restores function while preserving your tooth’s natural appearance.
After local anaesthetic, the infected pulp is removed using precision instruments. The area is disinfected, shaped, and filled with a biocompatible material before being sealed and restored with a filling or crown.
Unlike extraction, root canal treatment preserves your natural tooth, maintaining function and jaw stability while eliminating pain.
Avoid biting hard foods until the final restoration is placed. Continue brushing and flossing carefully. Some mild tenderness is normal for a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
