Root Canal Treatment:


What You Should Know
You may need a root canal if you experience ongoing sensitivity to hot or cold, notice discoloration of your tooth, or have swelling and tenderness in your gums. A bad taste in your mouth can also be a sign of trouble. If these issues are left untreated, they can lead to significant pain, swelling, and even the loss of supporting bone.
Our team is here to provide expert care and support throughout your root canal treatment, ensuring you’re comfortable and informed every step of the way. Experiencing any of these symptoms? Contact us today to schedule an appointment!

Benefits Of Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is essential for saving teeth that might otherwise require extraction. By removing infected tissues, we allow the tooth to remain functional and intact. With proper dental care post-treatment, your tooth can last for years, helping you maintain a healthy smile.
  • Root canal treatment begins with a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Our dentist then removes the infected or inflamed pulp from the tooth.
  • Next, we clean and shape the root canals using specialized hand or rotary files, flushing them with an antibacterial solution to eliminate debris. The canals are then filled with an inert material called gutta-percha to seal them effectively.
  • Finally, the tooth is restored to its full shape and function with either a permanent filling or a crown, depending on the extent of damage.
We use local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during root canal treatment. While some sensitivity or tenderness may occur afterward due to inflammation, over-the-counter pain relievers can effectively manage this.
If you experience swollen gums or ongoing pain, please reach out to our team. We’re here to assist you! Call 01603 453 331 to schedule your appointment.
