Root Canal Treatment

Save your natural tooth with root canal treatment

Root canal treatment (endodontics) is a procedure used to treat infection at the centre of a tooth. The treatment aims to save and repair a badly damaged or infected tooth instead of removing it.

When is Root Canal Treatment Needed?

• Severe toothache pain upon chewing or application of pressure
• Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
• Discolouration of the tooth
• Swelling and tenderness in nearby gums
• A persistent pimple on the gums

The Procedure

At Extreme Dentistry, we use a dental microscope for root canal treatments, providing superior visibility and precision. The procedure involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the canals, then filling and sealing the space.
