About Root Canal Treatments
Root canal treatment can help take away pain and save a tooth. When combined with proper dental care, it is a solution that can help keep your treated tooth strong for many years to come.
Root canal treatment involves removing the damaged, infected pulp from the tooth and cleaning, shaping, filling and sealing the tooth to prevent further infection. Sometimes, treatment can be finalised in a single appointment. By using today’s digital technology, root canal treatment at Bite Dentistry is very successful.

Signs and symptoms
When your root becomes infected you will experience:
Tooth sensitivity
Swelling around the tooth that can fill with pus or swell to other parts of the face
Loss of bone around the root tip
Dental abscesses can form
If your root canal becomes infected, there might not be pain at the beginning. However, as the infection develops, you may start to feel pain and if the infection isn’t treated, it could cause an abscess. This in turn could lead to tooth extraction. Therefore, it’s important to have root canal treatment before further damage takes place.
