What is Root Canal Treatment?


Root canal treatment is a procedure used to remove infection from inside a tooth, relieving pain and saving the natural tooth from extraction. It is often needed when the inner pulp becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, cracks, or trauma.

During the treatment, our clinicians carefully clean and disinfect the root canals before sealing the tooth to prevent further infection. Modern techniques and anaesthesia make the procedure comfortable, helping you return to normal function quickly.
