Root Canal Ipswich
Root canal treatments are remarkably effective to help with tooth infection and pain. It is a way to save a tooth rather than to extract it. Our Ipswich dentists are highly skilled in root canal treatment, offering comfortable and pain-free care. To book a root canal appointment at our clinic, contact our friendly team today.
What is A Root Canal Treatment?
Most commonly, root canal treatments are needed because the dental pulp has been damaged due to tooth decay and bacteria. Inflamed dental pulp can cause various symptoms such as pain, sensitivity to heat and cold, as well as facial swelling.
It’s always better to see a dentist sooner rather than later. Sometimes the tooth might be decayed beyond repair, and an implant or a bridge might be a better solution.
Usually, root canal will involve three visits over approximately 6 weeks. This ensures we eliminate any pain, get rid of all the infection in the tooth and finally, seal and restore the tooth.
Pain-Free Root Canal Treatment in Ipswich
You might have heard scary stories about root canal treatment, but we’re here to ensure you that it’s not as bad as it sounds. Our Ipswich dentists use innovative techniques to make your treatment as pain-free as possible. Besides, getting the root canal treatment will relieve the pain caused by the inflammation.
Local anaesthesia is used during root canal treatment. Relative Analgesia (happy gas) can be used for nervous patients for the injection, but we don’t like to use it during the procedure. This is because we need to use a rubber frame on your mouth, and we then won’t be able to monitor your airway properly. Let our team of dentists know if you feel nervous about the treatment, and we’ll do our utmost to make your visit comfortable.
What to expect on your visit
If you suspect you might need to visit the dentist, whether for a regular check-up or Wisdom Teeth Removal wide, the first step is to give us a call. Our friendly Ipswich dental assistants can help you with most inquiries, booking you in for a further root canal consultation or treatment.
When you come in, your dentist will have a discussion with you about your needs and propose treatment, whether it be Denture Implants or Dental Veneers. At Camira Dental, we take pride in telling the truth about patient needs, never engaging in up-selling.
You’ll get an upfront quote on the full cost of treatment before starting. If needed, it’s possible to prioritise treatment to spread out the cost. We won’t start any treatment without your verbal consent to proceed with the plan.
We use innovative pain-free techniques, providing gentle care. If you have sensitive teeth or a fear of the dentist, don’t hesitate to let our team know. We’ll do our best to make you feel comfortable during your root canal visit.
Join our regular dental check-up scheme
At Camira Dental, we generally recommend booking in for a dental scale and clean every six months. However, this will differ based on your situation, such as how prone you might be to tooth decay or gum disease. That’s why we encourage everyone to join our regular dental check-up scheme as a way forward to good dental and general health. This way, we can monitor and maintain your oral health over time.
Please note that when you sign up the regular check-up scheme, appointments are bulk billed to your health fund (conditions apply).
