WHY DO I NEED ROOT CANAL SURGERY?

The dentist performs this surgery specifically to save a tooth which is seriously damaged due to decay. This surgery allows you to keep your tooth for many more years.

Here’s the problem: the soft tissue inside the tooth (the pulp) is inflamed, or may have died. The pulp is a tissue with nerves, connective tissue and blood vessels. When the pulp dies, the nerve root’s canal becomes infected with bacteria. This causes swelling and pain, and is called an abscess.

The solution: the surgery involves removing the inflamed tissue or bacteria inside the root canal. After we clean the root canal, the space filled with a special protective material known as “gutta percha.” This substance will prevent any further infection and will preserve your tooth for many years to come.

WHAT IS INVOLVED IN THE SURGERY?

An x-ray allows us to accurately identify the shape of the canal and visualise the condition of the tissue.

Next, we will meticulously clean the infected tissue using an intensive antibacterial solution.

The root canals are sealed with special gutta percha material to prevent bacterial contamination.

When your root canal treatment is completed, we will restore your tooth using a composite restorative substance or insert a prosthetic crown depending on your situation. Find out more about root canals and endodontics

IS ROOT CANAL SURGERY PAINFUL?

No, the surgery is completely pain-free. We use a very effective local anaesthetic so you will be comfortable during the entire procedure. In fact, root canal surgery will end the pain you’re feeling right now.
We do not charge for the local anaesthetic. The anesthetic is formulated to prevent any pain and is completely safe. The effects will pass in just a few hours with no symptoms remaining long term.
