What is Root Canal Treatment used for?
Root canal treatment is used to remove any infected nerves or bacteria within the tooth. This is needed when either the nerve or the blood supply (the pulp) becomes infected because of dental decay or injury to the tooth.
Why is Root Canal Treatment used?
If the pulp of the tooth gets infected this can then spread into the root canal area of the tooth. If untreated this can cause an abscess and the infection would develop and spread further.

Will it hurt?
During root canal treatment a local anaesthetic is given to patients to prevent pain or discomfort during the treatment. For the next couple of days there may be very minor pain which can be relieved using painkillers.
Are there any alternatives?
Restoration treatments can be use where the tooth is extracted and then either a bridge, a partial denture or dental implant is used to replace the missing tooth. This aids both chewing and stops neighbouring teeth moving out of position.
Root Canal Explained
Wondering what’s involved with root canal treatment? Here’s what to expect..
What happens during the root canal treatment?
Our main aim is to remove any infection from the canal system of the tooth. We then shape and clean the canal to stop further infection spreading. Then we apply a temporary filling to the tooth and let it heal.
During the second appointment we finish the root canal treatment using a permanent filling or in some cases a crown. Root canal treatment can only be carried out by a highly skilled dentist and this kind of treatment can take time. Generally, most courses of treatment take two or three visits and the most any one treatment will take is about two hours.

Fantastic with my children. Everyone is so kind and takes time to explain. Ana was most excellent when we went for an orthodontic appointment. Explained everything so well to my son and us. Thank you dental team.
Karina Foster
I was impressed with the whole service. I was able to get an appointment for a check up. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The checkup was very thorough. Follow up treatment with a hygienist was arranged promptly. I can’t fault any part of my experience.

Keiren and team welcomed me into their practice reassuring me that they would provide an excellent service. True to their word …. they have. By helpfully explaining my dental programme and each procedure as they performed them I can confidently say they have helped me overcome by ‘going to the dentist’ phobia. Thank you!

After my long experience with dentists, I am very happy that I chose Dental Suite. The qualified and competent dentist and hygienist like Maryam, were very professional at their work and displayed their keen skills surrounding me with their kindness and great caring. Thank you.

I was referred to The Dental Suite, Loughborough, by my regular dentist for implant treatment to replace a bridge and a loose tooth supporting it. I have been impressed by the professional and friendly service provided and by the surgeon’s care in ensuring that I understand the process, benefits and potential risks of implant surgery.

I’m a current patient, part way through my Invisalign treatment and so far I’m very satisfied with the results and the customer service I’ve received at the Dental Suite.

Really nice especially for people like me who are typically anxious. Also let me play music while getting fillings 10/10

I can’t tell you how pleased I am with the composite bonding that I’ve recently had on my two top front teeth. Dr Kiren is an absolute magician. A true perfectionist at what she does and I felt in such good hands. The practice at West Bridgford is immaculate and all the staff are just lovely. Thank you so much for helping me to have the confidence to smile again. I never in a million years thought my teeth would look as good as they do!!

I’ve literally just come away from the practice after having my first single tooth implant procedure. I was super nervous, however, Kal & Gina both made me feel at ease by treating me as an individual and not just a patient sat in their chair.
