Your Path to Painless Root Canal Therapy

We offer top-tier root canal treatment at Capital Dentistry, serving the wonderful communities of Ngunnawal and Woden, ACT. This procedure can save a damaged or inflamed tooth from extraction. The root canal procedure involves removing the inflamed or damaged tissue from inside a tooth and then meticulously cleaning, filling, and sealing the remaining space. When the protective layers of enamel and dentin are compromised by deep cavities, decay, or cracks, the pulp, the tooth's soft inner tissue, becomes exposed to harmful bacteria, leading to inflammation, infection, and potential pulp death. Root canal treatment is the solution to remove the damaged pulp and help the surrounding bone to repair and heal.

What to Expect During a Root Canal

Root canal treatment typically spans two to three appointments, depending on the complexity of each case. Our skilled dentists ensure a comfortable and virtually painless experience throughout the procedure. An antibacterial medicine is placed inside the nerve space between appointments to relieve pain and clear infection. From the patient's perspective, the process is not significantly different from getting a regular filling. Root canals boast an impressive success rate of 90-95% over a decade. To safeguard the longevity of your root canal, we recommend placing a crown on the treated tooth, especially for molars that endure the brunt of chewing forces. This extra layer of protection prevents the tooth from breaking down and ensures that your root canal investment is well worth it.
