What is root canal therapy?
-
The process of root canal therapy is to clear infection which enables us to keep the tooth, rather than have it removed.
When the nerve and blood vessels in a tooth have died or are dying the tooth can become very painful.
In many cases it is necessary to follow up this treatment with a crown, to ensure the structural integrity of the weakened tooth is maintained.
Contrary to popular belief and with the advancement of dental technology, root canal therapy is a gentle and comfortable process these days.
If you are experiencing any pain or discomfort, contact us so we can best determine the right course of treatment for you.

Our success stories
The problem
John came in having spent several days in excruciating tooth ache due to a dental abscess. This occurred because the nerve and blood vessels in his tooth had died and an infection had formed.
The solution
We cleaned and sterilised the infected areas of the tooth and his pain immediately subsided. His tooth is still happily working away in his mouth 10 years later. These images show the tooth before the procedure and how it appears afterwards, on x-ray. The new white areas in the root system are the root canal treatment.

The problem
Caroline presented to the practice after losing faith in her previous dentist. She was concerned about a persistent lump on her gum and feared she may lose one of her front teeth. Her dentist had prescribed two courses of antibiotics, but the lump persisted. After a simple clinical and x-ray assessment, we discovered the previous root canal treatment in Caroline’s front tooth had failed, causing it to become re-infected. We discussed the problem with Caroline and suggested re-treatment of her root canal.
The solution
We carried out root canal therapy for Caroline over a series of straightforward visits, with no discomfort to the patient. We removed the old root canal filling, cleaned the canal system and placed an effective new root canal filling in its place. The series of x-rays show the initial large (dark) area of infection and how, over time, the bone repaired itself. 10 years later, Caroline still has a perfectly healthy front tooth.
