Wherever possible, it’s always best to retain your natural teeth. A root canal allows us to permanently treat infection inside a tooth and restore it to its full function, avoiding the need for removal and replacement.
The process involves disinfecting the inside of the tooth and sealing it to prevent further problems. Despite common misconceptions, root canals are safe, highly effective, and often the best way to preserve your natural tooth.
A root canal doesn’t need to feel scary or intimidating. We’ll explain everything clearly, you’ll be in the capable hands of experienced dentists, and local anaesthetic will keep you comfortable throughout the procedure. After a short healing period, a dental crown is often placed after root canal treatment to protect the tooth from further damage.
