What is Endodontic Therapy?

Endodontics, often referred to as Root Canal Treatment, is the treatment of the soft tissue inside the root of the canal known as dental pulp to save a natural tooth which would otherwise be extracted.

When would I need Endodontic treatment?

Endodontic therapy is the best solution for inflamed or infected pulp which if left untreated can lead to an abscess and ultimately tooth loss.

Inflammation or infection is usually caused by:

  • Deep decay
  • Repeated dental procedures on the tooth
  • A crack or chip in the tooth
  • Dental trauma

Are all teeth suitable for Endodontic treatment?

Most teeth are treatable. Occasionally, a tooth can't be saved because the root canals are not accessible, the root is severely fractured, the tooth doesn't have adequate bone support, or the tooth cannot be restored. The dentist will discuss your options during your consultation so you can make an informed decision about your treatment.

How long will a treated tooth last?

Most endodontically treated teeth last as long as other natural teeth.

How much does it cost?

The fee for your consultation and suitability assessment with photographs and x-rays is £50. You may require a Root Canal CT scan assessment at an additional charge of £96 or possibly a more in-depth CT scan assessment at £196.

Following your assessment we will provide you with a bespoke Treatment Plan with detailed costings for you to discuss, approve and sign off before any work is carried out.

The overall cost will depend on the complexity of your treatment. As a guide, a single root canal treatment is £650 and a single root canal retreatment is £750, plus the cost of a filling on top. We offer a finance plan with 0% interest to spread the cost of your investment.
