What is it?
When the nerve is affected, root canal treatment makes it possible to keep the tooth rather than extract it. It is often followed by a rebuild or a crown, because a root-filled tooth becomes more fragile over time.

How it unfolds
How does this treatment go?
These are the usual steps at the clinic. Their number and pace are adjusted to your situation, after the examination.
The diagnosis
The examination and X-ray confirm that the nerve is affected and that the tooth can be kept.
The root canal treatment
Under local anaesthetic, the canals are cleaned, disinfected and then sealed.

Root canal treatment: your questions.
These answers remain general. At the consultation, we answer precisely for your situation.
Ask a questionIs root canal treatment painful?
It is done under local anaesthetic. Some discomfort when chewing may be felt for a few days afterwards; it is usually eased by the painkillers recommended.
Why fit a crown on a root-filled tooth?
A root-filled tooth is more fragile and can fracture. A crown is recommended when the tooth has lost a lot of structure, in order to protect it.
Is it better to extract the tooth?
When the tooth can be saved, root canal treatment makes it possible to keep it. If not, extraction and replacement options are explained to you.
