Root Canal Treatment

Root canals treat diseased or abscessed teeth. Once a tooth is injured, cracked or severely decayed, it is necessary to open the tooth and clean out the infected tissue in the centre. This space is then filled and the opening sealed.

Keeping your natural tooth by doing Root Canal Treatment helps to prevent your other teeth from drifting out of line and causing jaw problems. Saving a natural tooth avoids having to replace it with an artificial tooth.
A local anesthetic numbs the tooth and the surrounding area therefore the root canal procedure is painless.
