Our restorative dentists have years of experience carrying out gentle and successful root canal treatment to give patients’ teeth a new lease of life.
Teeth can become infected when severe decay creates a cavity (hole) in your tooth and when dental trauma like an injury to the face occurs. Both of these instances can lead to bacteria entering through the cavity and attacking the living tissue inside your tooth. Once this happens, your tooth begins to die, as the blood supply to the tooth becomes cut off.
Our dentists have performed hundreds of root canal cases, using minimally invasive techniques and equipment.
We understand that for some patients, the idea of root canal treatment is daunting, but we encourage you not to worry. We value the personal touch, so we will always seek to go at your pace and to help you feel relaxed and settled before we begin treatment.
Many of our patients often tell us how surprised they are at the simplicity of their root canal treatment, and that they expected it to be painful. As we use anaesthetic, you won’t feel anything whilst your dentist removes the infected substance from your tooth.
They will then place a sealant to stop bacteria from striking again, and at a second appointment, a filling or crown will be placed over the teeth to restore their aesthetic integrity and function.
It can be over one or two visits depending on complexity and tooth.

We use local anaesthetic to numb the treatment site prior to the procedure.
Only once we know you are fully numb and comfortable will we proceed with removing the infection from the tooth.
Our dentists use the most advanced rotary instruments and bioceramic sealers to seal the root canals. Such instruments significantly reduce the risk of reinfection in the future and ensure predictable and successful outcomes for our valued patients.
In many cases, root canal complications can come on silently, so it’s essential that you attend your routine dentist check-ups to have the smallest signs of decay caught early.
Some classic signs of an infected tooth include:
Your dentist will do everything to attempt to save your tooth, but sometimes it is in your clinical interests to remove it.
Once you have undergone root canal treatment, your tooth will be restored with a crown, which strengthens it against wear in the future.
