Endodontic or Root Canal Treatments

Endodontic or Root Canal Treatment is required when a tooth is very badly decayed or damaged. That’s because the blood or nerve supply of a damaged tooth can very easily become infected. Not surprisingly, an infection can be very painful and even result in an abscess. Regular dental check ups and careful brushing and flossing can help to prevent you needing an endodontic treatment but if you require one, we’ll talk you through your options and make sure you understand what your treatment involves.

We’ll begin by removing any sign of infection from the damaged tooth, before cleaning it thoroughly and filling your tooth to prevent further damage. We’ll match your filling to the colour of your existing teeth too and aim to restore the damaged tooth to its original shape, so the filled teeth will blend in beautifully with your smile.

If you feel particularly anxious or nervous about visiting the dentist, don’t worry, we also offer many of the latest sedation techniques, for a relaxing, pain-free experience.
