What exactly happens during the root canal procedure?
1
Relieve your pain
Whether you come to us via a planned check-up and clean or an emergency appointment, our first step is always the same – to treat your tooth pain. We’ll take an x-ray of the problem tooth, determine the cause of your pain and numb the area with anaesthetic before getting to work.
2
Save your tooth
We gently remove the infected pulp and carefully clean inside the tooth canals. Your tooth is then filled and sealed to stop further bacteria from getting in.
3
Royal treatment
Your root canal dentist will advise whether you’ll need a dental crown placed on top of the affected tooth as an additional measure to prevent further damage.
Root canal pain should be treated immediately, or you run the risk of losing the tooth via extraction, followed by more essential dental work. Our interest-free payment plans will ensure we can fix your dental issue now, without delay.

It is a tooth-saving dental procedure that removes the infected dental pulp within the root canal space. After, the space is cleaned, filled and sealed, so that the tooth can be retained.
How much does a root canal cost?
Our root canal treatments start from $950, but will vary in price per position of tooth, extent of treatment required, and whether you’re presenting via an out-of-hours emergency appointment.
How long does a root canal take?
Typically one hour, but you need two appointments to complete the procedure depending on the extent of the infection.
How bad is the pain after root canal treatment?
During the procedure you’ll receive anaesthetic, and afterwards any discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. We expect any residual discomfort to go within a few days.
How long does a root canal last?
Providing you keep your six-monthly appointments, your root canal treated tooth will function just like your other teeth.
