At Hartog Dental our award winning team is fundamental to everything that we do. Our team approach means that we regularly draw on the diverse expertise and specialisms of each clinician to bring you and your family the very best care and attention possible.
The aim of root canal (endodontic) treatment is to save teeth that might otherwise face removal, here at Hartog Dental we pride ourselves in our root canal treatment being painless, comfortable and efficiently carried out.
If you have an emergency at the weekend or on a bank holiday, please call your practice and your call will be directed to our on-call dentist.
“The end-to-end process was clearly explained, and the procedure was as straightforward as a root canal can be. I would recommend David and Harthog for any endodontic requirements”
Root canal therapy is done in three steps, and it usually takes between one and three sessions to complete.
First, we remove everything that is inside the root canal. We make a tiny access hole on the surface of the tooth with our state-of-the-art operating microscope to remove the diseased and dead pulp tissue with tiny files.
Next, we clean, shape and decontaminate the hollow area, using tiny files and irrigation solutions. The tooth is filled with a rubber-like material, using an adhesive cement to seal the canals completely. After root canal therapy, the patient will no longer feel any pain in that tooth because the nerve tissue has been removed, and the infection has been eliminated.
The final stage is to make the tooth strong again. A crown (a cover on a tooth) resembles a tooth and is permanently cemented on. Crowns are custom fit to each tooth and the shape and colour can be customised to maximise their aesthetics. Crowns surround teeth circumferentially and cover the chewing surface. This reduces stress on a weakened tooth and protects it against trauma and chewing forces.
