Root Canal Therapy
About Root Canals
Root canal therapy is a highly effective procedure designed to save a tooth that has been damaged by deep decay or infection. When bacteria reach the inner pulp of the tooth, it can cause pain, swelling, and serious oral health risks. Instead of extracting the tooth, a root canal removes the infected tissue, cleans and disinfects the inner chamber, and seals the tooth to prevent further damage. Preserving your natural tooth maintains your bite, appearance, and jawbone health.
At Richmond Centre Dental Clinic, we use the latest techniques and technology to make root canal therapy as comfortable and efficient as possible, helping you maintain a healthy, natural smile.
Why Root Canal Treatment?
Saving your natural teeth is always our priority whenever possible. Root canal therapy helps prevent the psychological and financial burdens associated with tooth loss. Losing a tooth without replacement can lead to bone deterioration, shifting of surrounding teeth, a collapsing bite, and noticeable changes in your smile. A root canal offers a high success rate and is often more affordable than extraction followed by replacement options like implants or bridges.
