Root Canal Treatment

When the inside of a tooth (the pulp) becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, or injury, it can cause severe pain and lead to further complications if left untreated. Root canal treatment removes the infection from inside the tooth, disinfects the area, and seals it with a durable filling or crown to protect it for the long term.

At Avonhead Dental, we understand that the words “root canal” can sound daunting - but with modern techniques and anaesthesia, the procedure is usually no more uncomfortable than getting a regular filling. Our dentists take the time to explain each step and ensure you feel at ease throughout your treatment.

Benefits of root canal treatment:

  • Relieves pain and discomfort caused by infection
  • Preserves your natural tooth, avoiding extraction
  • Restores chewing and biting function
  • Prevents the spread of infection to surrounding teeth and gums

In some cases, a crown may be recommended after root canal therapy to strengthen and protect the treated tooth. We’ll provide you with a tailored plan to ensure your tooth remains healthy and functional for years to come.

If you’re experiencing toothache, sensitivity, or swelling, don’t wait - early treatment can make all the difference.
