Root Canal Treatment
Saving your natural tooth with gentle care
Root canal therapy is a common procedure that removes infection or inflammation from deep inside a tooth while preserving its outer structure. With modern techniques and digital imaging, treatment is comfortable and highly effective — often no more uncomfortable than getting a filling.
During treatment, the infected tissue is carefully removed, the canal is cleaned and sealed, and the tooth is restored with a filling or crown for strength and protection.
This allows you to keep your natural tooth and avoid extraction.
Extractions
Safe and comfortable tooth removal
Sometimes, removing a tooth is the best option to protect your overall oral health — for example, if a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or unable to be restored.
Our team performs extractions with great care and precision, using local anaesthetic and gentle techniques to ensure your comfort. We’ll also discuss replacement options, such as implants or bridges, if needed, to help maintain your bite and smile.
Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Relieve discomfort and prevent future issues
Wisdom teeth are the last to come through, and for many people, there simply isn’t enough room for them to fit properly. This can lead to pain, crowding, infections, or damage to neighbouring teeth.
We use digital imaging and careful assessment to determine if removal is needed, and plan the procedure for safety and comfort. Extractions are performed under local anaesthetic, or under general anaesthesia for more complex cases or anxious patients.
Our goal is to make the process smooth and stress-free, with thorough aftercare advice to help you recover comfortably.
