Restorative
Root Canal Treatment to Save Your Tooth.
Root canal treatment has an unfair reputation; for most people it feels much like having a filling. Here is who needs it, how we keep you comfortable and what happens afterwards.
Overview
Understanding Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment deals with infection or inflammation in the soft pulp inside a tooth. Your dentist cleans and shapes the narrow canals with fine instruments, then seals them to stop infection returning.
The aim is always to keep your own tooth. We use local anaesthetic and take our time, explaining each step before we start. Back teeth often need a crown afterwards, which we include in your plan.
