Our root canal procedure

We make the process smooth, supportive, and fully personalised—because your dream smile deserves nothing less.

1.

Examination and X-rays

Your dentist will begin by examining your tooth and taking X-rays to assess the extent of the infection and locate the decay within the root canals.

2.

Local Anaesthesia

To ensure a comfortable experience, local anaesthesia is applied to numb the affected area. Most patients find the procedure no more uncomfortable than a standard filling.

3.

Pulpectomy (Removal of Infected Pulp)

A small opening is made in the tooth to access the infected pulp. The diseased tissue is carefully removed from the pulp chamber and root canals.

4.

Cleaning and Shaping

Once the pulp is removed, the root canals are thoroughly cleaned and shaped to prepare them for filling.

5.

Filling the Canals

The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha and sealed with dental cement to prevent future infection.

6.

Restoration (if needed)

Depending on the extent of the damage, a crown or filling may be placed to restore strength, function, and appearance to your tooth.

Root Canal FAQs

What are the do's and don'ts after a root canal?

After a root canal, do follow your dentist’s care instructions, take prescribed medication, and avoid chewing on the treated side until the permanent filling or crown is placed. Don’t eat hard or sticky foods, skip follow-up appointments, or ignore discomfort. Avoid smoking and alcohol during recovery, as they may slow healing. Good hygiene, including brushing and gentle rinsing, will help protect the tooth. Rest, monitor symptoms, and contact your dentist if pain increases.

How many days should I rest after a root canal?

Most people return to normal activities the same day or within 24 hours. If sedation or multiple canals were involved, an extra day of rest may help. Avoid strenuous activity and chewing on the treated side during the first day. While recovery is usually quick, it’s important to listen to your body. Mild soreness is common but should improve daily. Always follow post-treatment advice and allow time for proper healing if discomfort persists.

How soon after a root canal can I eat?

Wait until the numbness from anaesthetic wears off – usually 1 to 2 hours – before eating. Eating while still numb may cause accidental biting of the tongue or cheek. Stick to soft foods for the first day and avoid chewing on the treated side. Avoid hot, crunchy, or sticky foods until your permanent crown or filling is placed. Once fully restored, you can resume your normal diet, but maintain good hygiene around the treated tooth.

How long should you wait to brush your teeth after a root canal?

You can brush your teeth the same evening after a root canal. Be gentle around the treated tooth to avoid irritation. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and avoid vigorous rinsing or flossing directly near the temporary filling. Maintaining oral hygiene helps reduce the risk of infection and supports healing. If your tooth is sore, try angling your brush to avoid pressure. Once fully restored, you can return to your usual brushing and flossing routine.

Can I drink coffee after a root canal?

You can drink coffee once the numbness wears off, but avoid it while your mouth is still numb to prevent burns. If a temporary filling was placed, try to drink warm – not hot – coffee for the first few days. Avoid sweetened coffee that may leave residue on the treated tooth. Once healing is underway and the final restoration is complete, you can return to your usual coffee routine. Just remember to rinse or brush afterwards.

How does laser root canal treatment differ from a conventional root canal?

Laser root canal treatment uses laser energy to disinfect and clean the root canals. It can reduce bacteria more effectively and reach areas that traditional tools might miss. Traditional root canal therapy relies on manual and rotary instruments to clean and shape the canal, followed by disinfectants. Laser-assisted methods, such as SWEEPS or PIPS, improve cleaning efficiency and may shorten treatment time. Many patients report less post-operative discomfort with laser root canal options.

Why choose SWEEPS for root canal treatment?

SWEEPS (Shock Wave Enhanced Emission Photoacoustic Streaming) uses advanced laser energy to remove debris and bacteria deep within the root canal system. It enhances cleaning by creating shock waves that improve penetration of the disinfecting solution. Compared to traditional methods, SWEEPS may offer more complete cleaning, better outcomes, and reduced risk of reinfection. It’s ideal for patients seeking a modern, thorough approach to root canal treatment with faster healing and less discomfort.

What are the benefits of PIPS dental therapy?

PIPS (Photon-Induced Photoacoustic Streaming) is a laser-assisted root canal technique that uses energy pulses to activate cleaning fluids inside the root canal. This allows the disinfectant to reach tiny spaces that traditional instruments often miss. PIPS improves cleaning effectiveness without extensive mechanical shaping, preserving more natural tooth structure. Patients often experience less post-treatment pain and shorter healing times. PIPS therapy supports better outcomes in both standard and complex root canal cases.

Who is a candidate for PIPS therapy during root canal treatment?

PIPS therapy is suitable for most patients needing root canal treatment, especially those with complex or curved root canals. It is often recommended for cases where enhanced disinfection is needed, such as previously failed root canals or infections that extend deep into the canal system. Patients who prefer a more conservative, less invasive treatment may also benefit. Your dentist will determine suitability based on X-rays, canal anatomy, and your overall oral health.

Why would I need a root canal treatment?

When the pulp of a tooth becomes infected and swollen, a root canal may be necessary. The causes of infection include tooth decay, a fractured tooth, an injury, or a failed dental crown or filling.

How do I know if I need a root canal treatment?

Signs include:

Continuous pain
Extreme or prolonged sensitivity to extreme temperatures
Discolouration of a tooth after trauma
Swollen face
Sensitive gums

How long does a root canal take?

The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the details of the procedure you’re having, and the type of tooth involved. The treatment can often be completed in a single visit. At times, a second appointment may be required.

Why would I need a dental crown after a root canal treatment?

After receiving a root canal treatment, the tooth is more likely to chip or break. To protect the tooth from further infection and to strengthen it structurally, a crown is usually placed on top of the treated root.
