Root Canals Alderley Edge

When a tooth’s nerve becomes seriously damaged by infection or decay, root canal work can help save the tooth and stop any resultant discomfort or pain. The root canal process involves removing the living tissue inside the tooth, called the pulp, along with the nerve itself, bacteria and decay. The space that is left behind is then filled with dental material that helps restore the tooth’s full function.

At Cheadle Dental Practice in Alderley Edge, we use advanced techniques and local anaesthetic to ensure our patients can enjoy a comfortable experience. We aim to save natural teeth wherever we can, instead of jumping straight to an extraction. Our experienced dental team provides affordable, effective and comfortable dental treatments for a range problems, with excellent, long-lasting results.

The procedure

1. Initial consultation: We begin with a full set of x-rays to help inform a thorough analysis of the damage and then plan the root canal work.
2. Local anaesthesia: First of all, you will receive a local anaesthetic to help you relax and take away pain and discomfort during the treatment.
3. Cleaning and removal: Our team cleans and thoroughly dries the area before isolating the tooth and extracting the infected and damaged pulp.
4. Sealing and filling: After this, the space left behind inside the root canal is filled with special material to stop the area from reinfecting itself. This can be done during a single visit, or multiple appointments, depending on how complex your particular case is.
5. Restoration: Following the root canal work, the tooth is covered by a crown or filling to stop any further damage or decay from taking place.
