Root Canal Treatment - Endodontics

The tissues inside a tooth can occasionally become infected or inflamed. This can occur for a number of reasons, such as trauma to the tooth or a crack in the enamel.

Treatment involves cleaning the inflamed or infected pulp from inside the tooth and re-shaping the cavity. The space is then filled to help avoid further infection. Local anaesthesia will ensure that the patient remains comfortable. The entire procedure will take no more than one or two visits.

Due to advances in endodontics, this type of treatment enjoys a very high level of success. This means that a tooth that may have needed removal a few years ago, can now be saved.
