Root canal treatment is a dental procedure designed to remove infected or inflamed pulp from the tooth. The aim is to remove any bacteria to eliminate pain and preserve the natural tooth.
The pulp is a soft tissue made up of blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue which can get infected or inflamed causing toothache and sensitivity.
During a root canal procedure, our skilled dental professionals remove the infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth, thoroughly clean and disinfect the area, and then fill and seal it to prevent future infection. This procedure not only alleviates pain but also preserves your natural tooth, maintaining your smile’s integrity and function.
Our team of root canal specialists are here to alleviate any pain you are experiencing and are available to answer any questions or concerns you have about root canals.
