What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment treats the inside of a tooth affected by infection or nerve damage, by cleaning the area and sealing it afterwards, to avoid the need for extraction. The main goal of this treatment is to save your natural tooth.
- Performed by a licensed dentist
- Aims to save your natural tooth from extraction
- Suitable for teeth with a dead nerve, abscess or severe infection
- Procedure performed under local anaesthetic
- Usually requires more than one visit
Situations That May Need Root Canal Treatment
Severe Toothache
Persistent or severe tooth pain that does not subside.
Dead Nerve
Nerve damage due to infection or physical injury.
Abscess
A pus pocket caused by infection at the tooth root.
Tooth Infection
Infection that has spread inside the tooth structure.
Avoiding Tooth Extraction
An option to keep your natural tooth instead of extraction.
Why You Should Get Treated Early
Effects If This Infection Or Toothache Is Left Untreated
Infection May Spread
An untreated root infection may spread to the surrounding gum or jawbone. Early examination helps the dentist assess the infection level accurately.
Abscess May Get Worse
An untreated abscess may become more swollen and painful. If you experience swelling or fever, contact the clinic for an urgent appointment.
The Tooth May Not Be Saveable
The longer an infection is left untreated, the more the chance of saving the natural tooth may decrease. The dentist will assess with an X-ray to determine the best option.

FAQ Root Canal Treatment
Does root canal treatment hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic so the area is numb throughout treatment. Some discomfort may be felt after the anaesthetic wears off, and this usually subsides within a few days with proper care.
Is root canal or tooth extraction better?
Both options have their own advantages — root canal preserves your natural tooth, while extraction may be more suitable if the damage is too severe. The best choice depends on your tooth’s damage level; the dentist will help you decide at examination.
How long does each treatment session take?
The duration of each session varies according to case complexity and tooth type. The dentist will give a time estimate during consultation so you can plan your schedule.
Do I need a crown after root canal treatment?
In many cases, especially for molars, a crown is recommended after root canal treatment to protect and strengthen the treated tooth. The dentist will assess this need based on your tooth’s condition.
How many visits are needed for root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment usually requires more than one visit, depending on the infection level and the type of tooth being treated. The dentist will share the full schedule at examination.
