Root Canal Therapy
Relieve Pain. Save Your Tooth. Restore Your Smile.
At London Heritage Dental, we provide Root Canal Therapy, a safe and effective treatment designed to save infected or damaged teeth. Our goal is to help you avoid extractions or more invasive procedures while preserving your natural smile.
What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal treatment removes infection from the tooth’s inner pulp, which houses nerves and blood vessels. If left untreated, this infection can cause severe pain, swelling, and abscesses.
Why Might You Need a Root Canal?
Common reasons include:
- Deep decay or large cavities
- Cracked or chipped teeth
- Trauma or injury
- Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity
Comfortable, Modern Care
Using the latest dental technology, many root canals can be completed in just one visit. Complex cases may require a follow-up appointment. After treatment, we often recommend placing a dental crown—especially on back teeth—to protect and restore full function.
Don’t Ignore Tooth Pain
