Root Canal Treatment in Roseville, NSW

Woman holding her mouth in pain, in need of a root canal treatment, Roseville NSWIf you suffer from severe tooth pain that keeps you awake at night and prevents you from participating in your everyday activities, you may have an infected or abscessed tooth.

It’s important to note that an infected tooth will not get better without treatment. It could progressively cause more damage and discomfort and even impact other critical areas of your body. If an infected tooth is left untreated, it will reach a point where it’s unsalvageable and will need extraction. 

The good news is that root canal treatment will immediately relieve discomfort, eliminate the infection, and protect your natural tooth from extraction.

 

Lower Your Risks for Root Canal Infection

Root infections can be excruciating and prompt you to call for an emergency dental appointment in Roseville. Fortunately, you can lower your risks with a few healthy habits.

See Your Roseville Dentist

It's vital to see your dentist regularly for exams and teeth cleans. Exams help us detect infection at its earliest stage, and professional teeth cleans eliminate the bacteria that lead to infection.

Maintain Your Oral Hygiene

Be sure to brush and floss regularly. While brushing after every meal is best, shoot for at least twice daily. It would be best if you also flossed at least once, preferably after your last meal of the day

Contact Our Dental Clinic

If you notice tooth sensitivity, jaw swelling or other persistent symptoms, we encourage you to contact our dental team for guidance or to arrange a visit with the dentist as soon as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many patients are worried about root canal treatment causing pain or discomfort. This is likely because this treatment is often associated with the pain caused by the infection in your tooth.  

We're here to dispel the myth that root canal treatment is painful because it's just not true. A root canal actually alleviates your pain, eliminates tooth infection, and protects your tooth from extraction. 

What Happens During Root Canal Treatment?

If you need a root canal, you likely suffer from a painful tooth infection. Dr Yang will immediately relieve your pain at the start of treatment with a local anaesthetic to numb the infected tooth. This also ensures you don't feel anything during your procedure.  

Next, she carefully removes the infected tissue from your tooth with flexible, electric hand tools that make the procedure smooth, comfortable, and efficient. When she's sure the tooth is free from infection, she will seal it with a temporary dental filling and allow it time to heal fully. 

Once it's healed, you'll return to Roseville Dental and Implants for a permanent crown or filling to rebuild and strengthen your tooth, ensuring you have full chewing function again. 

We welcome your call if you need more information on root canals in Roseville.

When Do We Recommend a Root Canal?

Some of the signs and symptoms you may notice if you have a tooth infection are:

  • A constant and severe toothache
  • Pain or throbbing when you bite or chew food
  • Tooth darkening or discoloration
  • Facial pain or swelling
  • A white bump or blister on the gums around the infected tooth

If you or a loved one is experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to contact your Roseville dentist as soon as possible to seek treatment and protect your teeth and health.

Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?

This is the question that always accompanies a root canal. The answer is no!

The infection in your tooth causes the pain that you feel. Root canal treatment will actually eliminate that discomfort because Dr Yang will numb the compromised tooth before your procedure.

You may feel some soreness after your treatment, but it will be significantly diminished. This is normal as your tooth is healing and should improve each day.

Root Canal Treatment Technology

Rotary Endodontics

Root canals are typically more efficient when performed with rotary endodontic hand tools. Made of nickel-titanium instead of stainless steel, these tools flex so they reach the canals inside your tooth more comfortably. Rotary hand tools are electric, making them more efficient.
