Saving Your Natural Tooth
When the soft tissue inside a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, root canal treatment can ease discomfort and help you keep the tooth rather than having it removed.
Relieves Pain
Treatment removes the source of infection inside the tooth, which can ease ongoing discomfort.
Keeps Your Tooth
It is designed to save your natural tooth, helping you avoid an extraction where possible.
Protects Your Bite
Keeping your natural tooth helps maintain your bite and the teeth around it.
Comfort-Focused
The area is numbed and we take a gentle approach, talking you through each step.
Restored Afterwards
A treated tooth is usually restored with a filling or crown to protect it long term.

Your assessmentHow it works
Easing Pain, Saving Teeth
We carefully assess the tooth, often with an X-ray, to understand what is happening inside and whether root canal treatment is the right option.
Our aim is to relieve your discomfort while helping you keep your natural tooth wherever we can.
