Preserve Your Natural Tooth and Relieve Pain
A root canal infection can cause severe pain and discomfort. At Dental Lounge Eltham, Dr. Iraj Almasi provides expert root canal treatment to alleviate your pain, save your tooth, and restore your smile’s function.
Understanding Root Canal Infections
A root canal infection occurs when bacteria invade the tooth’s pulp, the soft tissue at the tooth’s centre. This infection can lead to inflammation, pain, and potential tooth loss if left untreated.
Common Signs of a Root Canal Infection
- Persistent toothache, especially when biting or chewing.
- Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures.
- Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth.
- Discolouration of the tooth.
- Bad breath or an unpleasant taste in your mouth.
Why Choose Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal surgery is a more conservative option than tooth extraction. It allows you to preserve your natural tooth, maintain your smile’s appearance, and avoid the potential complications associated with missing teeth.
The Root Canal Procedure
1. Comprehensive consultation: A thorough examination to assess the extent of the infection and discuss the procedure.
2. Local anaesthesia: Ensuring a comfortable and pain-free experience throughout the treatment.
3. Infection removal: Carefully removing the infected pulp and cleaning the root canals.
4. Root canal filling: Sealing the root canals with a biocompatible material to prevent future infection.
5. Potential crown placement: In many cases, a crown is recommended to restore the tooth’s strength and appearance. Dr. Almasi will discuss this option during your consultation.
