Root Canal

Endodontic treatment becomes essential when dental X-rays reveal an infection within the pulp, the soft tissue inside the tooth's root canal. This infection, caused by bacteria, can lead to inflammation and further spread if left untreated. Symptoms of a root canal infection may include pain while biting, eating, chewing, or drinking, loose teeth, and increased sensitivity.

A dental crown may be necessary after a root canal treatment if the tooth suffered from severe damage or if it was a molar. The crown can be customised to match the colour of the tooth and adds strength and stability. Once placed, the tooth’s chewing and biting function gets restored.

Our Endodontists specialize in making your root canal experience as comfortable and pain-free as possible. Advanced techniques and anesthetics ensure most patients remain relaxed throughout the procedure.

It's common to experience some tooth sensitivity in the days following a root canal procedure. This is a normal part of the healing process. To alleviate any discomfort, over-the-counter pain relievers can be effective. Our dentists and endodontists assure you that this sensitivity will gradually subside within a week or two.
