Root Canal Treatment

At Premium Smile, we provide advanced root canal treatment in London to save infected or damaged teeth and relieve pain quickly and effectively.

Despite its reputation, modern root canal treatment is a comfortable, highly successful procedure that helps you avoid tooth extraction and maintain your natural smile.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic therapy) is a procedure used to remove infection from inside the tooth.

Inside each tooth is a soft tissue called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe pain and swelling.

Root canal treatment removes the infected tissue, cleans the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal

You may require root canal treatment if you experience:

  • Persistent toothache

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers

  • Swelling around the gums

  • Darkening of the tooth

  • Pain when biting or chewing

In some cases, infection may be present without noticeable pain, which is why regular dental check-ups are essential.

The Root Canal Procedure at Premium Smile

At Premium Smile, we use modern techniques and technology to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible.

The process typically involves:

  1. Numbing the area with local anaesthetic

  2. Removing the infected pulp from inside the tooth

  3. Cleaning and disinfecting the root canals

  4. Filling and sealing the tooth

  5. Placing a crown (in many cases) to restore strength and appearance

Most treatments are completed in one or two visits.

Does Root Canal Treatment Hurt?

This is one of the most common concerns. The reality is that root canal treatment relieves pain rather than causes it.

With modern anaesthesia and techniques, the procedure feels similar to having a routine filling.
