Signs you may need one
- A toothache that lingers after hot or cold food
- Pain that wakes you at night or throbs on its own
- Pain on biting, or a tooth that feels taller than the others
- A swelling or pimple on the gum near a tooth
- A tooth that has turned dark after a knock
Sometimes there is no pain at all and the problem only shows up on an X-ray. That is one reason regular check-ups are worth keeping.
What happens in the chair
- An X-ray shows the root and how far the infection has gone.
- The tooth is numbed. This is the step patients most often mention in reviews, usually to say they hardly felt it.
- The infected pulp is removed and the canals are cleaned and shaped.
- The canals are sealed so bacteria cannot get back in.
- The tooth is rebuilt, and a crown is usually advised to protect it.
Why the crown matters
A tooth that needs a root canal has usually lost a lot of its structure, and back teeth take heavy chewing forces. A crown protects it from cracking. The clinic offers zirconia and PFM crowns, and same-day fitting is available, so you are not left waiting in a temporary cap.
Afterwards
The tooth may feel tender for a few days, and ordinary painkillers usually help. Avoid chewing hard food on that side until the final restoration is in place. If the pain gets worse or swelling appears, call the clinic.
Book a visit
If it can no longer be saved, the doctor will tell you honestly and explain other options. Call 080 4736 0296 or send a WhatsApp message. If you are in pain now, see what to do in a dental emergency.

Frequently asked questions
Is a root canal painful?
The tooth is numbed first, so the treatment itself should not be painful. Most of the pain people remember is from the infection beforehand, and the treatment is what removes it.
Can it really be done in one appointment?
Usually, yes. Some teeth with an active infection need a second visit to settle first.
Is it better to pull the tooth out?
Keeping your own tooth is usually better where it can be saved. A gap brings its own problems and has to be replaced to keep your bite stable.
Do I need a crown afterwards?
Usually yes, especially on back teeth, because a treated tooth is more likely to crack. The doctor will advise you for your tooth.
