Expert Root Canal Treatment for Long-Lasting Relief

Root canal treatment is a procedure to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or becomes infected. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. The whole procedure is very comfortable with local anaesthesia.

Without treatment, the tissue surrounding the tooth will become infected and abscesses may form. The tooth’s pulp or pulp chamber is the soft area within the root canal. The tooth’s nerve lies within the root canal. We use the latest technology and modern motors to make the procedure painless and comfortable for you
