When you may need a root canal treatment?
Severe toothache
Persistent, intense toothache, especially when chewing or applying pressure to the tooth, can be a sign of pulp inflammation or infection.
Prolonged sensitivity
Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures that lingers, even after the temperature stimulus is removed, may indicate an issue with the tooth's pulp.
Swollen gums
Swelling or tenderness in the gums near a specific tooth could be a sign of infection spreading from the tooth's pulp.
Deep decay or tauma
Teeth with deep cavities or those that have experienced significant trauma (such as a fracture exposing the pulp) may necessitate a root canal.
What is a root canal treatment?
A root canal is a common dental procedure designed to treat and save a tooth that is severely decayed or infected. During the procedure, the damaged pulp is removed, the space is cleaned, and the tooth is sealed to prevent further infection.
​
A root canal treatment is typically used to
​
Preserve your natural tooth: Root canal treatment allows you to keep your natural tooth, maintaining the integrity of your smile.
Relief of the pain: Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring a comfortable experience. The treatment eliminates pain caused by tooth infections.
