How We Help
Relieving Pain and Saving Your Tooth
Root canal treatment becomes necessary when infection and decay reach the inner pulp of a tooth, causing severe pain and the risk of tooth loss. Without treatment, the infection can spread to surrounding teeth and the jawbone.
Our experienced dentists use modern techniques and equipment to make the procedure as comfortable and efficient as possible. Local anaesthetic ensures you feel no pain during treatment, and most patients report feeling significantly better once the infection is removed.
Treating an infected tooth with root canal therapy is almost always preferable to extraction — it preserves your natural tooth, maintains jaw structure, and avoids the cost and complexity of tooth replacement options like implants or bridges.
Same-day emergency appointments available. If you're in severe pain, call us on (02) 9055 1735 — we'll see you as soon as possible.
The Process
What to Expect at Your Appointment
Most root canal treatments are completed in one to two appointments. Here's exactly what happens.
Assessment & X-Rays
We take digital X-rays to map the root canals and assess the extent of infection before planning your treatment.
Local Anaesthetic
The area is fully numbed with local anaesthetic. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure actually is.
Cleaning & Shaping
The infected pulp is removed, the canals are carefully cleaned, shaped and disinfected to eliminate all bacteria.
Filling & Restoration
The canals are sealed with a permanent filling. A crown is often recommended afterwards to protect and strengthen the tooth.
