At Top Dentists Footscray, our skilled dentists perform root canal procedures with precision and care. When the soft inner pulp (blood or nerve supply) of a tooth becomes infected through deep decay or injury, root canal treatment may be the best option to save the tooth and prevent the need for extraction.
This restorative procedure involves removing the damaged or infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inner tooth, and sealing it with a permanent filling material.
After your root canal procedure, you will receive care instructions to promote healing and longevity of the treated tooth. Good oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits, will aid in maintaining the life of your root canal treatment.
Don't let a damaged or infected tooth go untreated. Contact Top Dentists Footscray today to learn if root canal therapy is the right solution to save your natural tooth, relieve pain, and preserve your smile's health and function.
