Root canal and endodontics
Almost everything people dread about this is the pain that brought them in.
Root canal treatment, re-treatment and post & core.
Before we start
We image the tooth so the shape of the roots is known, then give the anaesthetic and wait for it to work properly. That wait is not padding in the appointment. A tooth that is fully numb is the difference between a quiet visit and a difficult one.
During
The tooth is isolated so nothing washes into the rest of your mouth, and the canals are cleaned and shaped. You will hear it more than you feel it. Where the tooth allows, it is finished in a single sitting.
Re-treatment, post and core
A tooth that has had a root canal before can be reopened, cleaned again and refilled. Where too little tooth is left to hold a crown, a post is cemented into a root and a core is built on it to give the crown something to sit on.
What this includes
- Root canal treatment, single sitting where the tooth allows
- Treatment of front and back teeth
- Re-treatment of an earlier root canal
- Post and core in fibre, metal or cast
We do not publish prices. What a treatment costs depends on how complex the case is, so you are given the figure for your own treatment at the consultation, before anything begins.
