A root canal is performed to save an infected or badly damaged tooth by eliminating the infection inside the nerve of the tooth. Root canal treatment typically takes one or two visits and involves removing the inflamed or infected pulp, then cleaning, disinfecting and sealing the root canal. The tooth is then restored with a crown to protect it long-term.
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to see a dentist as soon as possible. Left untreated, a dental infection can spread to surrounding teeth, your jaw and even your neck.
Modern root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than having a filling. At Bilby Dental we use the latest Rotary Endodontic technology to perform root canals quickly and comfortably, reducing your time in the dental chair and speeding up recovery.
Bilby Dental is located at Yarrabilba and serves patients from Jimboomba, Logan Village, Tamborine, Cedar Creek, Chambers Flat and surrounding suburbs. We accept all major health funds and offer emergency dental appointments — often on the same day. Contact us today to book.
