Saving a tooth from the inside
Inside every tooth is soft tissue called the pulp. Deep decay, a crack or an injury can let bacteria reach it, causing pain, sensitivity or swelling. Left untreated, the tooth may eventually have to be removed.
Root canal treatment removes the inflamed or infected pulp, cleans and shapes the canals inside the root, and seals them. The tooth is then restored with a filling or crown so it can keep working normally.
We treat both vital teeth (where the nerve is still alive) and infected teeth. Only an examination can tell whether a root canal is what your tooth needs.
What we treat
Each tooth is different, so the treatment is planned for the tooth in front of us.
Vital teeth
The nerve is still alive but inflamed — treated before infection sets in.
Infected teeth
Teeth where infection has already reached the pulp or beyond.
Front teeth (incisors)
Single-canal teeth at the front of the mouth.
Premolars & molars
Back teeth, which often have more than one canal.
Children’s root canals
Saving a child’s tooth where it is appropriate to do so.
Restoration afterwards
A filling or crown to protect the treated tooth, discussed as part of your plan.

Root Canal Treatment: common questions
Straight answers before you visit.
The tooth is numbed with proper pain management, so the treatment itself should be comfortable. Some tenderness afterwards is common and usually settles within a few days — tell us if it does not.
Where a tooth can be saved, keeping your natural tooth is usually preferable to removing it. The dentist will tell you honestly whether your tooth can be saved or whether extraction is the better option.
It depends on the tooth and how badly it is affected. After examining you, the dentist explains the plan and the number of visits.
Often a treated tooth needs a filling or a crown to protect it. The dentist will advise what suits your tooth and include it in your plan and cost.
Yes. We provide root canal treatment for children as well as adults, where it is appropriate for the child’s tooth.
