OUR TOP PRIORITY IS MAINTAINING YOUR TEETH

Root canal treatment is required if the nerve tissue inside the tooth is inflamed by bacteria or has already died. Causes can be deep caries or trauma, for example. Without treatment, the infection can adversely affect jawbones, neighbouring teeth and, in the worst case, other organs via the bloodstream.

It is important to completely remove the bacteria and diseased nerve tissue. That way, the root canal can be disinfected and filled in the next step in order to maintain the tooth in the long term.
