​
Endodontics (often referred to as Root Canal Therapy) is the area of dentistry dealing with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the dental pulp. When the nerve of the tooth becomes diseased or infected, it is essential to remove the nerve to save the tooth. This involves removing the infected tissue while leaving the tooth intact.
​
One of our experienced dentists will create a small opening in the top of the tooth and the infected tissue is removed. The interior of the tooth is then disinfected. A filling or crown is then applied over the tooth to close the hole and protect the tooth. This process is done over a number of appointments.
​
Previously, if a tooth became infected it would have simply been removed. At Wanniassa Dental we take every possible step to save all teeth and keep your natural smile for life.
