When tooth decay or injury reaches the innermost part of the tooth, known as the pulp, it can cause significant discomfort and jeopardise the health of the tooth. At our Christchurch dental practice, we understand how distressing tooth pain can be and are dedicated to providing gentle, effective root canal treatment to help preserve your natural smile.
Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic therapy) is designed to remove infection from the inside of the tooth, alleviate pain, and prevent further damage. This procedure can often save a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted, helping you to maintain both your smile and oral health.
We use modern techniques and local anaesthesia to ensure the procedure is comfortable. Most patients report that the experience is no more uncomfortable than having a filling.
Treatment typically takes one or two appointments, depending on the complexity of the infection and the number of canals in the tooth.
With good oral hygiene and a protective crown, root canal-treated teeth can last as long as natural teeth
