Root Canal Treatment Extending The Life Of Your Tooth ?

With the modern techniques used at Appledore Dental Clinic Bracknell by Dr Neha & Dr Neale a root canal treatment is no longer needs to be feared and should be embraced as it extends the life of your tooth.
  • Why does my tooth hurt?
When you have a trauma to your tooth or an infection, it can damage the root canal causing swelling and pain.
This is the soft middle part of your tooth where the nerves and blood vessels are.
  • What are the treatment options?  
The only cure is to clean the root canal in your offending tooth. If the problem was caused by an infection you will probably need antibiotics first. Once your tooth is numbed, the root canal is removed and then replaced with a sealant to prevent further infection and pain occurring. It's quite a fiddly intricate procedure, on more complex teeth, Dr Neha & Dr Neale will sometimes use the microscope for a better view.
No pain?
The Wand is used to ensure your tooth is fully numb before the start of treatment, so you should feel no pain, perhaps just a little discomfort. However, most of our patients say that it’s actually quite a restful treatment as there’s not much noisy drilling, just a time consuming treatment where you need to keep your mouth open for a period of time.  Click here to go to our pain free dentist page

If you need a root canal treatment don't panic just ask us to explain what needs to happen and why
We recommend that root filled teeth have a crown placed on them as your tooth will not be as strong as it was, and a crown will help to ensure your tooth lasts longer.
