Root Canals at
First Impressions Dental
Perth Endodontic Treatment
Getting a root canal is a protective measure that can prevent tooth loss and the need for unnecessary dental extractions.
Thanks to our gentle techniques, advanced technology and in-house sedation options, our patients are able to experience an efficient treatment that enhances the health and integrity of their smiles.
Reasons for Getting a Root Canal
Root canals are necessary when the inner nerve tissues of the tooth have been traumatised or infected. Covering the tooth would only seal the damaged nerve inside, but a root canal removes the tissue and then fills the hollow chamber left behind.
You may require an endodontic treatment if you have experienced:
- A traumatic injury, such as a sporting or car accident
- Severe decay that has spread deeper into the tooth
- Large fractures or chips in your enamel
- Painful toothaches
- Dental abscesses and swelling
Rotary Technology for Accurate, Efficient Treatment
Not all root canal treatments are the same. At First Impressions Dental, we’ve invested in advanced rotary endoscopic equipment, so that our patients can have access to the most accurate, efficient and gentle root canal therapy available. The overall process requires less time while also enhancing the quality of care we provide to your family.
Thanks to these extra steps, getting a root canal can be just as comfortable and efficient as when you have a filling placed by our dentist.
After having a root canal, it’s common to place a crown over the tooth to prevent any chipping or wear to the enamel left behind.
