Treatment process

Root canals are cleaned, shaped and filled with suitable material. The number of appointments depends on the case. A definitive restoration is planned to protect the tooth.

Care and follow-up

Follow-up assesses the tooth and tissues around its roots. Retreatment or other options may be needed in some cases.

Preparing for your first visit

  1. Discussion of your concern and medical history.
  2. Clinical examination and appropriate diagnostic records.
  3. Review of alternatives, treatment stages and maintenance needs.
Suitability is determined at clinical assessment. Medical history, medication, existing tissues and expectations may influence the plan. Duration, appointments, fees and possible risks are discussed after individual evaluation.
