Root Canal Treatment
in Selby

All teeth contain a complex network of soft tissues and nerves. If these become infected you will need to come to the practice for endodontic (root canal) treatment.

If you experience any kind of tooth decay, we strongly advise that make an appointment to see your dentist.

The advantages of root canal treatment

  • Endodontic treatment will relieve pain and discomfort
  • It will prevent abscesses from forming
  • It will keep healthy the internal soft tissues of your tooth
  • It can prevent the need for a tooth to be extracted
  • Root canal treatment also stops infection spreading further to other teeth

Saving your smile

Endodontic treatment can save affected teeth that might otherwise have to be removed. Your dentist will clear any tissue that is infected before ensuring that all the relevant root canals have been carefully cleaned and sealed. A crown may sometimes be required to restore the full functionality and appearance of the tooth.

Many patients are initially concerned about root canal treatment - but it can, in fact, be a relatively comfortable and pain-free experience. This is thanks to the latest anaesthetic options that are available. Our team of experienced dentists will do their best to ensure that you are as relaxed as possible during your treatment.
