When Do You Need Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the soft tissue inside your tooth’s pulp chamber becomes infected or inflamed. If left untreated, these untreated infections can spread and cause severe abscesses with pus inside. You may experience:

  • Persistent tooth pain that doesn’t go away or increased pain over time
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers after the temperature source is removed
  •  Pain when biting down or applying pressure
  •  Swollen or tender gums around the affected tooth
  •  Severe abscesses that require immediate attention from your dentist
  •  A loose tooth or discoloured tooth that has turned dark or grey
  •  Internal abscesses that can affect the surrounding blood vessels and soft tissue

The risk of complications increases when infections are left untreated. Early intervention during regular dental visits can prevent the spread to internal organs and save your natural tooth. Understanding these risk factors is essential for maintaining your oral health.

Our Root Canal Process

Step 1: Comprehensive Assessment

We begin with a thorough examination using advanced technology and 3D imaging to get a complete picture of your tooth's condition and create the most effective treatment plan from available treatment options.

Step 2: Complete Comfort

We administer local anaesthesia to ensure you're completely comfortable throughout the dental procedure. A dental dam isolates your tooth, maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness while preventing bacteria from entering.

Step 3: Precision Treatment

Using dental operating microscopes for enhanced precision, we carefully remove the infected pulp and inflamed pulp from inside your tooth's crown and pulp chamber. The area is thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and sealed with gutta-percha to eliminate bacteria and prevent reinfection.

Step 4: Restoration & Protection

Your treated tooth is restored with a filling or dental crown, ensuring it continues to function just like any other tooth while looking natural and beautiful. This protects the tooth and allows proper healing to occur.
