Root canal treatment is a proven, effective solution for treating infected or damaged teeth, relieving pain while preserving your natural smile. At Westmount Dental, our specialist endodontists use advanced skills and state-of-the-art technology to manage even the most complex cases, ensuring precise treatment and successful outcomes.
Infection of the tooth’s pulp—the soft tissue inside—can arise from deep decay, trauma, or injury. If left untreated, this infection causes severe pain and may lead to tooth loss. Timely root canal therapy stops the infection, saves your tooth, and prevents further complications.
Why Choose Specialist Endodontic Care?
Our in-house endodontic experts bring advanced knowledge and precision to complex cases, such as curved root canals, retreatments, or previously failed root canal therapies. Their specialised training and cutting-edge equipment allow for accurate diagnosis and treatment, increasing the likelihood of saving your natural tooth and avoiding extraction or surgery.
What to Expect During Your Root Canal Treatment
- Comprehensive Examination & Diagnosis
Your dentist or endodontist will thoroughly examine your tooth and take detailed X-rays to assess the extent of the infection or damage.
- Comfortable Local Anesthesia
We prioritise your comfort by fully numbing the treatment area before the procedure begins.
- Accessing the Infected Pulp
A small opening is carefully created in your tooth to access the infected pulp chamber and root canals.
- Cleaning, Shaping & Disinfecting
The infected tissue is gently removed, and the canals are meticulously cleaned, shaped, and disinfected using specialised instruments and techniques.
The cleaned canals are sealed with a durable, biocompatible material to prevent any future reinfection.
To restore function and protect the treated tooth, we usually recommend a custom dental crown following your root canal therapy.
Our specialist-led root canal treatment offers precision and care, even for challenging cases, helping promote faster healing and long-term oral health.
