A severe toothache and swelling do not necessarily mean a dental extraction.

Thanks to advances in dentistry, there are now methods that can save your natural tooth rather than extract it. One of these treatment techniques is root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy or RCT.

While the term ‘root canal’ can make some people distressed, you’ll be surprised to know that the procedure is quite simple! With modern root canal treatment in Idle, you can relieve pain, save your tooth, and have a surprisingly comfortable experience.

What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is a unique term that refers to both the affected tooth structure and the procedure used to treat it.

The root canal is a hollow space within the roots of your tooth. These roots secure the tooth in your jawbone and house the pulp chamber, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. The pulp may become infected or inflamed as a result of deep decay, cracks, or injuries.

If left untreated, the infection can spread, resulting in more serious problems such as abscesses or tooth loss. The greatest benefit of root canal treatment is that it removes the infected pulp, thoroughly cleans and seals the tooth, and prevents future issues—all while preserving your natural tooth.

The benefits of modern root canal treatment

At Taylored Dental Care, we offer root canal treatment you can trust:

Is root canal treatment painful?

Not at all. Modern root canals are performed under local anaesthesia, so you will not be in pain during the procedure. Any after-procedure discomfort is usually mild and only temporary.

How long does a root canal take?

Most procedures last one to two hours. Depending on the circumstances, you may require a single-visit root canal or several visits.

Can I eat after a root canal?

It is best to wait until the anaesthesia has worn off before eating. Start with soft foods for the first few days.

When is a root canal treatment required?

Not all toothaches need a root canal treatment for the teeth, but here are some signs that say it’s better to show a dentist:

  • Persistent toothache: If you are experiencing constant or throbbing pain that worsens at night, the pulp may have become infected.
  • Sensitivity to hot and cold foods: If eating or drinking hot or cold items causes sharp pain that lasts, it could indicate nerve damage.
Taylored Dental Care
  • Swollen, tender gums: An infection around a tooth can cause gum swelling and pain.
  • A discoloured tooth: If a tooth darkens due to an accident or over time, it may indicate pulp damage. Even if it has been years since the injury, discolouration is worth investigating.
  • Gum boil near a painful tooth: A small pimple or boil on your gums could indicate an abscess, a serious infection that requires immediate treatment.
