Root Canal
Pain-free endodontic treatment to save and protect your natural tooth.
Free consultation
Overview
Root canal treatment saves a tooth that is badly decayed or infected by removing the inflamed nerve, cleaning and sealing the inside of the tooth. Modern, painless techniques let you keep your natural tooth instead of extracting it — usually finished with a protective crown.
Who is it for?
- You have severe toothache, sensitivity or a dental abscess.
- A tooth is deeply decayed or cracked but still restorable.
- You want to keep your natural tooth rather than remove it.
- You need to resolve infection before a crown or makeover.
How it works
- 1
Diagnosis
An x-ray shows the infection and the shape of the root canals.
- 2
Cleaning
Under local anaesthetic, the infected pulp is removed and the canals are disinfected.
- 3
Sealing
The cleaned canals are filled and sealed to prevent reinfection.
- 4
Protection
A crown is usually placed to restore strength and protect the treated tooth.
Treatment time
One to two visits; often completed within a few days.
Recovery
Immediate relief from pain; mild tenderness for a day or two.
Pricing
Far below UK/EU pricing, often bundled with the protective crown. Confirmed after your x-ray review.
Frequently asked questions
Is a root canal painful?
No. With modern anaesthetic the treatment is no more uncomfortable than a filling, and it relieves the pain of infection.
Do I need a crown afterwards?
Usually yes — a root-treated tooth becomes brittle and a crown protects it long term.
Can the tooth be saved?
In most cases yes. We confirm from your x-ray whether the tooth is restorable.
How long does the tooth last?
A well-treated and crowned tooth can last many years, often a lifetime.
