What is root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment (also called endodontics) is needed when the blood or nerve supply of the tooth (known as the pulp) is infected through decay or injury.
The infection may spread through the root canal system of the tooth. This may eventually lead to an abscess.

Why have Root Canal Treatment?
If root canal treatment (RCT) is not carried out, the infection will spread and the tooth may need to be taken out. Although some people would prefer an extraction, it is usually best to keep as many natural teeth as possible.
Our Root Canal Treatment Procedure.
Root canal treatment is a skilled and time-consuming procedure.
First our specialist in Endodontics, Dr Szilárd Szabó cleans and disinfects the root and places a medicinal filling. The tooth then requires healing time before the dentist removes the gutta percha/temporary filling, cleans the area again then closes the root with a permanent cement filling.
Our dentists always aim to save the patient’s natural teeth where possible but they also need to be sure that any teeth treated for infection and left in the jaw or, teeth used as bases for crown or bridge work are sound and healthy if they are to be suitable for long term restorative treatment which is why we allow healing time to help ensure the success of the root canal treatment before continuing. Please note that not all root canal treatments are successful – depending upon the individual case, root canal treatment sometimes fails to heal the infection correctly with the result that the tooth usually has to be extracted.
