Root Canal Treatment for Infected or Damaged Teeth

Root canal therapy removes infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth, cleans the canals, and seals them to prevent further problems.

When a tooth has severe decay or infection but can still be restored, root canal treatment may allow the natural tooth to be preserved instead of extracted.

Treatment Process

What Root Canal Treatment Includes and How It Works

Root canal treatment is carried out in stages to remove infection, clean the root canals and restore the tooth.

Examination and X-rays

The tooth is examined and dental X-rays are used to confirm the need for root canal treatment and assess the root anatomy.

Local Anaesthesia

Local anaesthesia is administered to help keep the procedure comfortable for the patient.

Infected Pulp Removal

The infected or damaged pulp is removed from inside the tooth and the root canals are thoroughly cleaned.

Canal Shaping and Disinfection

The canals are shaped and disinfected to remove infected material and prepare them for filling.

Filling and Sealing

The cleaned canals are filled and sealed with biocompatible material to help prevent reinfection.

Final Restoration

A temporary or permanent restoration may be placed. A crown is often recommended where additional protection is needed.

Most cases are completed in one or two visits, depending on the tooth and treatment complexity.

Who Needs Root Canal Treatment?

Who It Is For and Key Benefits

Root canal treatment is recommended for adults and some older children with irreversible pulpitis, deep cavities reaching the nerve, or dental abscesses.

If the tooth can be restored, root canal therapy may allow you to keep your natural tooth rather than having it extracted.

  • Relief from severe toothache and infection
  • Preservation of the natural tooth
  • Restoration of normal chewing and function
  • Prevention of further bone or adjacent-tooth damage
  • Avoidance of extraction and more complex replacements

Root Canal Treatment vs Tooth Extraction

When a tooth is badly infected or damaged, extraction is not always the only option. If the tooth can be restored, root canal treatment may allow you to keep your natural tooth.

Root canal treatment removes the infected pulp, cleans and seals the root canals and allows the tooth to be restored.

Extraction removes the entire tooth and may later require replacement with an implant, bridge or another restoration.

Can Your Tooth Be Saved?

Whether a tooth can be saved depends on its condition, remaining tooth structure, infection and ability to be restored.
