Root Canal
Root canal treatment is used to save a tooth that has become infected or badly damaged on the inside. The soft tissue in the centre of the tooth, called the pulp, can become infected due to deep decay, cracks, or injury.
During treatment, the infected pulp is carefully removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and then sealed to prevent further infection. A crown is often placed on top to restore strength and protect the tooth.
At our clinic, root canal treatment is carried out using modern techniques and anaesthetic to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. The aim is to remove pain, stop infection, and save your natural tooth rather than removing it.

FAQs
Is root canal treatment painful?
No. It is done under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the procedure.
Do I need a crown afterwards?
Often yes, as treated teeth can be weaker and need extra protection.
What happens if I don’t have root canal treatment?
The infection can spread, causing more pain and possibly leading to tooth loss.
