Root Canal in Wimborne

The term endodontics describes the area of dentistry which concentrates exclusively on root canal treatment.

When a tooth becomes painfully inflamed or infected, rather than take it out, the aim of root canal treatment is to preserve the tooth by carefully cleaning out the intricate system inside the tooth and then sealing it to prevent it from becoming infected again.

Most teeth that have received this treatment will require a crown following treatment to help protect the remaining tooth tissue.

How it works
  1. First, local anaesthetic will be administered to ensure no discomfort is felt during treatment.
  2. The tooth will be prepared with a drill, allowing access to the root canal system.
  3. The root canal system will be thoroughly cleaned out to remove all infection and pulp.
  4. The root canal system is then filled and sealed temporarily with a crown.
  5. The tooth is checked at a later visit and when all the infection has cleared, the tooth is permanently filled.

Root canal treatment is a skilled and time-consuming procedure and most courses of treatment will involve two or more visits.
