ROOT CANAL TREATMENTS

At Oradent Dental Care, our dental clinicians will complete a thorough initial examination of your teeth to determine whether a dental veneer or dental crown would be the most appropriate restorative care for your tooth. As part of your initial assessment, an x-ray of the area will be taken to assess the extent of infection and create a treatment plan from there.

Endodontic therapy (RCT) is the best restorative treatment to alleviate pain and sensitivity from your tooth, it involves removing infected pulp from the tooth and disinfecting it to prevent the infection from spreading. Our goal is to save the tooth before the infection spreads and requires alternative treatment such as an extraction. Infections can occur from decay, a deep filling or trauma to the tooth.

If the tooth is complex and out of scope for a general dentist, we can refer you to a root canal specialist or see one of our general dentists with special interest in endodontics.

SYMPTOMS YOU MAY NEED A ROOT CANAL

  • Throbbing pain
  • Increased sensitivity to temperature (hot and cold)
  • Discolouration
  • Metallic taste
  • Gum tenderness
  • Swelling around the gum
  • Facial swelling

ROOT CANAL TREATMENT (RCT) IN 3 STEPS

Assessment

An xray will be taken to check the root canal System and the extent of any infection or other pathology

Emergency treatment may be performed to get you out of pain, if needed

Treatment Stage 1

The infected pulp or damaged tissue will be removed with local anaesthetic for numbing applied for your comfort. The root canal will be disinfected with an antibacterial solution, this will also relieve any pain experienced. Next, a temporary filling is placed until the next appointment stage to seal and protect the tooth.

Treatment Stage 2

At the final RCT stage, the tooth should be settled from the last visit. The temporarily sealing will be removed and replaced with a permanent filling material to prevent the infection from recurring. After the completion of the root canal therapy, it is generally advised to cover the tooth with a dental crown for additional strength and normal function restoration.

At Oradent Dental Care, we offer 0% finance plans over 12 months, so you can get the treatment you need without any financial stress.
