Root Canal Treatment in London

Root Canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the root of the tooth and is often the last resort instead of an extraction.

When treated under the best isolation techniques (isolating just that tooth from the rest of the mouth), infection inside the tooth is removed and cleaned and replaced with a root filling and completed with a crown to prevent fracture of a weakened tooth.

What is included

Detailed assessment with specialist

Infection removal

avoiding systemic antibiotics when possible

Heated sealant

and localised disinfection

Final restoration

for long term stability. We never charge for this

3 year warranty

Unparalleled peace of mind

The procedure is usually undertaken over 1-2 visits and relieves the pain of infection instantly. The cost of root canal treatment varies depending on complexity and saves a tooth for between 10-12 years on average with our expert team.

REVIEW 5 YEARS LATER

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.  TAKE YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE.  I AM NOT SURE AS TO WHY THE STANDARD HAS DROPPED.

Both my adult children have invested a few thousand pounds and both have experienced ill fitting and broken braces and retainers.  Unanswered calls, appointments one month away and teeth moving back to the original positions.  Sarcasm from staff and people not taking responsibility and lies.  Every single conversation has been recorded and the matters will now become legal.  Do not invest your time or energy with these people.  I could go further but it is apparent they treat people ‘differently’ enough is enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After several years of treatment with Dr Shanka, I can confirm, you cannot fault their service. I used to be extremely anxious of the dentist, and I’ve always felt at ease and welcomed here. I am very happy with my results, and having chosen Waldron Dental for my new smile. Thank you Dr Shanka! You are an asset to the practice.

Root Canal Treatment Frequently asked questions

We know you may have questions before undergoing root canal treatment. Whether you’re worried about pain, the procedure itself, recovery time, or success rates, we’re here to help. To help you feel confident and fully informed, we’ve answered some of the most common questions our patients ask about root canal treatment at Waldron Dental.

Is a root canal treatment painful?

The treatment is not painful when treated and numbed correctly. It is very much used as a pain relief.

How successful is a root canal treatment, and is a crown necessary after root canal?

Root canal treatment is highly successful; the procedure has more than a 95% success rate. Many teeth fixed with a root canal can last a lifetime. Root treated teeth are weaker and more prone to fracture than normal. In order to prevent this, a crown is often advised, especially on back teeth.

How long does the treatment take?

The treatment is usually split into 2 visits to ensure the root canal is clean and disinfected before filling and sealing the root. Each appointment is usually 1 hour long.

What happens if i have already had a root canal on the tooth?

Re-root treatment or extraction. Sometimes the tooth can become reinfected around the previous root filling. Placing crowns on the teeth can sometimes help this. Depending on the quality of the previous root filling, the previous root filling can be removed, disinfected again and re sealed. This is called a re-root canal treatment and costs £150-250 additional to the root canal treatment. This often requires a skilled dentist to perform well. If the infection is too large, the only option may to remove the tooth.

How do I know if I need a root canal treatment?

When you need a root canal treatment it is often because there is an infection through the root of the tooth and affected the surrounding bone. The symptoms are usually a continuous dull ache specifically around that tooth, but can spread depending on the size of the infection. It is possible with our team to re treat teeth that have previously had a root canal treatment.
