Reasons you might need root canal treatment

Root canals are often necessary for patients to cure damage deep inside the tooth. When a tooth has formed a large cavity, it can sometimes reach the pulp chamber of the tooth, which is made up of fine tissue fibres, nerves and blood vessels. When bacteria reach the pulp chamber, the tooth’s internal structure becomes damaged and can lead to painful consequences like abscesses.

NO NEED TO WORRY

We have found that many of our London patients are worried or nervous about root canal treatment, but you should feel no pain or discomfort at all during the procedure, and it’s over relatively quickly. Here at Mint Dental, our ethos is to educate patients about the procedure beforehand, explaining why it might be necessary, the purpose of any expert intervention, and any additional procedures required.

FAST PROCEDURE

Root canal treatment removes bacteria from inside the tooth and disinfects the root canals – and while this might sound invasive, we only make a small hole through the damaged tooth to reach the pulp chamber.

Following this, we locate and measure the root canal using tiny instruments to clean the infected area. Post-procedure discomfort is normal but manageable and short-lived. Your dentist will provide you with all the necessary aftercare tips.

Root canals traditionally do not take much time to complete (one to two hours). However, with this being said, each patient is different, and the length of the procedure will differ according to the complexity of your case. Sometimes, re-rooting or re-treatment might be necessary, which can take longer than an initial appointment.

The benefits of continuing with root canal therapy

• Quality of life is restored, allowing you to eat and chew without restrictions
• Works to preserve and save the natural structure of your tooth
• Avoids the alternative of tooth extraction and gaps in the mouth
• Once successfully completed, it lasts a lifetime (treatment success 95%)
• Keeps your smile entirely natural with no need for false prosthetics
• Effective and almost instant pain relief

“Great dentist, new, clean and professional. Had a root canal by the recommended endodontist, and he was excellent. Didn’t feel a thing, no pain and oddly no pain after. Very balanced and communicative throughout. A million times better than my previous experience at another dentist.
