About Root Canal Treatment
The pulp inside a tooth can become inflamed or infected through deep decay, a crack or injury. Root canal treatment cleans and shapes the canals, then seals them.
The tooth is usually restored afterwards with a filling or a crown. Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic and may take one or more visits.
Suitable for
Patients with persistent toothache, sensitivity to heat, or an infected tooth.
