Such damage can cause infection or inflammation of the nerves inside the tooth causing one or all of the following symptoms:

• Pain (continuous or throbbing)
• Sensitivity to hot and cold
• Abscess formation
• Tenderness of the tooth itself or surrounding gum
• Discoloration or darkening of tooth

A Root Canal Treatment will remove pain and sensitivity by removing bacterial infection from inside the tooth.

While Root Canal Treatment may save your tooth, the alternative treatment may require removal of such tooth. If left untreated, such tooth can cause severe pain, even abscess. An abscess can spread and damage the bone and tissues surrounding the root of the tooth. The tooth may then have to be removed.

It's best to save your tooth if possible. It works better than an artificial tooth for biting and chewing.

What happens during a root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment generally requires more than one appointment.

Our dentist will:

• take an x-ray of your tooth and the area around it
• use a local anaesthetic to numb the area around your tooth
• place a sheet of rubber called a dam over your tooth to keep the area clean and dry
• drill a hole in the top of your tooth to remove the pulp
• clean and disinfect the canals inside your tooth
• seal your tooth with a temporary filling if more than one session is needed

When the cleaning treatment is finished in one or more appointments, the dentist will fill the canal space with a sterile filling material. After the completion of the Root Canal Treatment, the dentist may recommend a filling or a crown as a long-term management afterwards to seal the tooth and to stop further infection by bacteria.
