Root canal treatment is needed when the pulp (inner nerve and blood supply) of a tooth becomes infected or damaged. These are the most common signs to look out for near Brentford.
Intense pain when biting, chewing or applying pressure to a tooth — particularly pain that lingers after eating hot or cold food.
Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers for more than a few seconds after the stimulus is removed — this often indicates nerve damage inside the tooth.
Swelling of the face, jaw or gums near a tooth, or the appearance of a pimple or bump on the gum — these can indicate a dental abscess requiring urgent treatment.
A tooth that has darkened or become grey may indicate that the nerve has died inside. Root canal treatment can save the tooth structure even when the nerve is no longer alive.
A significant crack, chip or blow to a tooth can expose or damage the inner pulp, leading to infection even if there is no immediate pain.
Decay that has penetrated deeply into the tooth and reached the pulp chamber. This is the most common reason root canal treatment becomes necessary.
A clinical examination and dental X-ray confirm the extent of the infection and the anatomy of the root canals. This determines whether a GDP or specialist treatment is most appropriate for your tooth.
Local anaesthetic is thoroughly administered around the tooth. Modern anaesthetic techniques mean root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than a filling. A rubber dam is placed to isolate the tooth and keep it clean throughout.
The infected pulp is removed and the root canals carefully cleaned, shaped and disinfected using fine instruments and antimicrobial irrigant. The canals are then sealed with a biocompatible filling material called gutta-percha.
After root canal treatment, a tooth typically needs a crown to protect it from fracture and restore full function. A temporary filling is placed and your permanent restoration is planned at a separate appointment.
"I was terrified of root canal treatment but it was genuinely nothing. I felt absolutely nothing and couldn't believe how straightforward it was. Dr Soni was brilliant — calm, gentle and completely professional. My tooth was saved."
"Had a root canal completed in one appointment. Zero pain during the procedure — less uncomfortable than a filling actually. The infection and toothache that had been keeping me up at night was gone afterwards. Excellent service."
"Had a previously failed root canal re-treated by Dr Priyanka Soni. I'd been told by another practice it would need to be extracted — Bridge Dental saved it. I'm so grateful. Incredibly skilled and reassuring throughout."
