Save your natural tooth
Root canal treatment saves teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted. Using modern techniques and advanced technology, our experienced dentists make the procedure comfortable and effective, relieving pain and preserving your natural smile.

Root canal treatment is necessary when the pulp (nerve) inside your tooth becomes infected or inflamed. This can result from deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma. Symptoms may include severe toothache, sensitivity to hot/cold, or swelling.
Under local anaesthesia, the infected pulp is carefully removed, the root canals are cleaned and shaped, then sealed with a biocompatible material. A crown is usually placed afterwards to protect and strengthen the tooth.
With modern anaesthetics and techniques, root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than having a filling. We use rotary instruments and electronic apex locators for precise, efficient treatment.
