What is Root Canal Treatment (RCT)?
Our Approach & Solutions
Pain Relief
Eliminates the severe pain caused by a dental abscess or infection.
Tooth Preservation
Saves your natural tooth, which is always the best option for your overall oral health.
Infection Prevention
Stops the spread of infection to other teeth or parts of the body.
Restored Function
Allows you to chew and bite normally on the affected tooth once restored with a crown.
The Treatment Process
Diagnosis and Anaesthesia
We confirm the infection with a digital X-ray and administer local anaesthetic for complete numbness.
Removing Infected Pulp
A small opening provides access to the pulp chamber, where the infected tissue is removed.
Cleaning and Shaping
The root canals are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected using specialised instruments.
Filling and Sealing
The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material and the tooth is sealed.
Final Restoration
A protective dental crown is almost always recommended to restore the tooth's long-term strength.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a root canal really painful?
No. The procedure itself is performed under anaesthesia and is no more uncomfortable than a standard filling. The pain you feel before treatment is from the infection, which the RCT eliminates.
How many appointments does it take?
Most root canals can be completed in one or two visits, depending on the case.
