Frequently Asked Questions

Common procedures include dental fillings (such as amalgam or composite fillings), root canal treatments, endodontic surgeries, dental crowns, bridges, and inlays/onlays. These treatments aim to preserve the natural tooth structure and restore its function and aesthetics.

Often simply known as “a root canal”, this treatment involves the removal of diseased pulp tissue from the inside of the tooth, which is then sealed with a crown. Root canals save teeth from extraction, and the tooth can last for many years after treatment, ensuring that patients retain a reliable bite and their beautiful smile.
Signs that you may need a root canal include a toothache, fracture, crack or broken tooth, sensitivity, swelling or pain around the tooth, abscess or drainage, or a known injury.

With modern techniques and anesthesia, root canal treatment is usually not painful. Patients may experience some discomfort during the procedure, but this can be effectively managed with local anesthesia. After the procedure, you may experience some mild discomfort or soreness, which can be relieved with over-the-counter pain medication.

Your tooth will be numb for some time after the procedure. We recommend that you take an over-the-counter pain medication such as ibuprofen before the anaesthesia wears off to catch any discomfort before it starts. Avoid chewing hard foods with that tooth until you have your final crown in place.
