When the nerve inside a tooth becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, trauma, or cracks, root canal therapy can often save the tooth and relieve pain without the need for extraction. By treating the infection and preserving your natural tooth, we can help restore your oral health and maintain your smile.

We understand that root canal treatment can seem overwhelming, but modern techniques and effective local anaesthetic make the procedure much more comfortable than many people expect. We take the time to explain your treatment, answer your questions, and ensure you feel supported throughout every step of the process.

​

During root canal therapy, we will:

• Remove the infected or damaged nerve tissue from inside the tooth

• Carefully clean and disinfect the root canals

• Seal the canals to help prevent future infection

• Restore the tooth, often with a dental crown, to provide long-term strength and protection

 

Why root canal therapy matters:
Saving your natural tooth is often the best option for maintaining your bite, preserving your jawbone, and avoiding more complex treatment in the future. Root canal therapy can relieve discomfort, eliminate infection, and allow you to continue using your natural tooth for many years.
