What Root Canal Therapy Does
Save Your Tooth.
End the Pain.
Think of your tooth as a small house — the inner part, called the pulp, contains the nerve, blood vessels, and connective tissues. When this chamber becomes infected or injured due to deep decay, trauma, or cracks, it causes significant pain and can lead to tooth loss.
Root canal therapy involves carefully removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the canals, then sealing them to prevent future infection — saving a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted.
What to Expect
Comfortable.
Step by Step.
Personalised Consultation
We assess your symptoms and take digital X-rays to confirm the diagnosis.
Gentle Anaesthesia
Local anaesthetic ensures you are fully comfortable before we begin.
Pulp Removal
Infected tissue is carefully removed from inside the tooth and its root canals.
Completing the Process
Sealed, Protected,
Restored.
Cleaning & Disinfecting
The canals are thoroughly cleaned using minimally invasive techniques.
Sealing the Tooth
The canals are sealed with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection.
Crown Restoration
A custom crown is placed to protect and restore full strength and appearance.
A treated tooth can last a lifetime with a crown and proper care — often the most cost-effective option compared to extraction and replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is root canal therapy painful?
With modern techniques and anaesthesia, root canal therapy is typically no more painful than getting a filling. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is.
How long does it take?
Most root canals can be completed in one or two appointments depending on the complexity of the case.
Will I need a crown afterwards?
In most cases, a crown is recommended to protect and strengthen the treated tooth and restore full function.
What is the alternative?
The only alternative to root canal therapy is tooth extraction, which can lead to shifting teeth and the need for implants or bridges.
