At Witney Smile Clinic, our highly trained team of dental professionals are able to perform root canal treatments on teeth that have become infected at the root.

What is a root canal treatment?

Root canal treatments are commonly performed endodontic treatment that targets infection in the interior of the tooth, also sometimes referred to as the dental pulp.

How will I know if I need a root canal treatment?

We often use X-rays to help us diagnose the need for a root canal treatment. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, then you might be in need of a root canal treatment:

  • A loose tooth
  • Pain when biting down or chewing
  • An abscess
  • Increased sensitivity

What happens during the treatment?

We understand that for many patients, receiving this treatment can be nerve-wracking or worrying. With the progress made in dental techniques and technologies, as well as our kind and highly trained team, there is no need for any such worry.

We’ll first administer a local anaesthetic so the area being treated is numbed and when the anaesthetic takes effect, we’ll irrigate the tooth and remove any infection present. Once the tooth has been thoroughly disinfected, we’ll return the tooth to full function by applying a filling, or in cases where more damage is present a crown.
