Treatment is also carried out when trauma occurs in a tooth.
Once the pulp becomes infected, it can become very painful and can’t heal by itself. A root canal treatment is carried out to clean out the infected pulp and disinfect the canals of the tooth.
This is Dr Janet Ibbotts’ area of special interest, and she continues to push the practice forward with her postgraduate study in this area.
If you have a tooth that’s painful, sensitive to hot or cold, or tender to bite on, root canal treatment may be able to save it rather than needing an extraction. Your dentist will take an X-ray to check the extent of the infection and confirm whether root canal treatment is the right option for your tooth.
Treatment usually takes place over one or two appointments. Your dentist numbs the area, removes the infected pulp, then cleans and shapes the canals before sealing them. A crown or filling is often placed afterwards to protect and strengthen the tooth.
Some sensitivity or tenderness is normal for a few days after treatment and should settle with over-the-counter pain relief. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until any crown or filling is fully in place, and keep up your regular brushing and flossing so the tooth stays protected.
The cost of root canal treatment depends on the tooth being treated and the complexity of the case. Visit our Fees & Finance page for guide pricing, or ask our team at your appointment for a personalised quote.
