| If your tooth is severely decayed or
damaged you may require an endodontic or root canal treatment.
Before we begin your treatment however, we’ll talk you
through your choices and explain what’s involved, especially
if you’re an anxious or nervous patient.
When your tooth is badly decayed or damaged, the blood or
nerve supply of the tooth is at increased risk from infection,
which is naturally very painful and could even result in you
losing the affected tooth.
To make sure this doesn’t happen, an endodontic or
root canal treatment involves removing any sign of infection
and cleaning it thoroughly, before filling your tooth to restore
it to its natural shape, preventing any further problems.
We offer a wide range of fillings, including
tooth-coloured fillings designed to match your existing
teeth, for a more natural, flattering smile.
