Endodontics (Root Canal Treatment)

Persistent toothache, swelling, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, or a tooth that’s darkened in color often signals infection inside. Only an X-ray and examination by a dentist can confirm if a root canal is necessary.

With modern local anesthesia, the procedure is completely painless. Most patients say it feels similar to getting a filling. Our gentle approach ensures comfort during and after treatment, even for nervous patients.

Most cases are completed in one 60-90 minute visit. Complex or severely infected teeth may require two visits to ensure thorough cleaning, disinfection, and sealing of the canals for long-term success.

You can return to normal activities immediately. Mild tenderness may last a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it’s permanently restored.

Keeping your natural tooth maintains your bite, jawbone health, and smile. Extraction often leads to bone loss and requires costly replacements like implants or bridges, which take more time and investment.

In most cases, yes. A crown strengthens and protects the treated tooth from cracking, especially molars. It also restores natural appearance and function, allowing you to chew with confidence.

Antibiotics can’t remove infection inside the tooth – they only control symptoms temporarily. A root canal is the only way to clean and seal the canals, preventing the infection from returning.

Yes. With proper anesthesia and care, root canal treatment is safe for all ages, including patients with medical conditions. We tailor treatment plans to your individual health needs.

Failure is rare, especially with our advanced techniques and careful sealing. If bacteria re-enter, retreatment can usually save the tooth and restore full function without extraction.

It’s far more affordable than in Western Europe – often saving you up to 70% – and costs much less than replacing a missing tooth. You get EU-quality care at a fraction of the price.
