What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the centre of a tooth. This is not painful and can save a tooth that might otherwise have to be removed completely.

What causes root canal infection?

The infection at the centre of a tooth (the root canal) is caused by bacteria that live in the mouth and invade the tooth.

This can happen after:

  • tooth decay
  • leaky fillings
  • damage to teeth as a result of trauma, such as a fall

How do I know if I need root canal treatment? 

If you notice symptoms like tooth pain, bleeding or swollen gums, discolouration, bad breath, an unpleasant taste, or a loose tooth, it might be time to consider a root canal treatment.

How does root canal treatment work? 

Our dentist will carefully drill through the crown, which is the flat part at the top of your tooth, to reach the soft tissue at the centre (pulp). They will then remove any remaining infected pulp.

Am I suitable for root canal treatment at your clinic in St Albans?
