Save your tooth, end the pain
Gentle, modern root canal treatment that relieves pain and keeps your natural tooth.
Not as scary as it sounds
Root canals have a worse reputation than they deserve. When decay or injury reaches the soft pulp inside a tooth, that tissue can become infected — causing serious pain and, if left untreated, the loss of the tooth. A root canal simply removes the infected pulp, cleans and disinfects the inside of the tooth, and seals it.
With modern techniques and thorough numbing, the procedure is about as comfortable as having a routine filling — and it actually relieves the pain you came in with. Best of all, it saves your natural tooth, which is almost always better for your bite and long-term health than removing it.

Persistent pain
Ongoing toothache or pain when chewing or applying pressure that won’t settle.

Swelling or a dark tooth
Tenderness, swelling around a tooth, or a tooth that’s darkened in colour.
Your root canal, step by step
Straightforward, comfortable and focused on saving your tooth.
Numb & access
We fully numb the area, then gently open the tooth to reach the infected pulp.
Clean & seal
The canals are cleaned, disinfected and carefully sealed to prevent re-infection.
Protect
The tooth is restored, usually with a crown, to keep it strong for the long term.
