What is a Root Canal treatment?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the centre of a tooth. This infection may be caused by deep decay, repeated dental treatments, cracks, or trauma to the tooth.

During treatment, the infected pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed, the root canals are cleaned and disinfected, and the space is filled and sealed to prevent further problems. A crown or filling is then placed to restore the tooth’s strength and appearance.

What to expect from Root Canal Treatment?

At your first appointment, we’ll carry out a full examination, which may include X-rays, to determine the extent of the infection. We’ll then explain the treatment process step by step so you feel fully informed and at ease.

The procedure itself is usually completed in one or two visits, depending on the complexity of the case. You’ll be given local anaesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable throughout. After treatment, the tooth may feel slightly sensitive for a few days, but this quickly settles as the healing process takes place.
