Root Canal Treatments

Root canal treatments are sometimes necessary when the dental pulp or vascular tissue within a tooth becomes infected by bacteria.

In a mature tooth, this tissue is present to alert us to damage or infection but, if necessary, an adult tooth can survive very well without this pulp.

This is removed and the space filled with an inert rubber like material.

In limited cases, it may be necessary to refer you to a specialist to guarantee an optimal treatment.
