Deep decay, trauma, gum disease and enamel wear are just a few of the reasons you may need a root canal. Along with a clinical examination, a dentist can see by your x-rays if the dental pulp has been damaged by bacteria and a simple filling won’t fix the problem.

Your dentist will recommend if a root canal is your best solution, and will outline the treatment designed to save your tooth. This will generally involve removing the bacteria, and sealing the tooth with a filling or a crown.

Despite its reputation, a root canal isn’t always painful, though local anaesthetic is normally used to make it more comfortable.
