Root Canal Treatment in Aspley
Root canal treatment is the most effective way to relieve dental pain and save an infected tooth. Typically, people need this type of dental treatment when there is inflammation or infection that began as tooth decay and now extends deep inside the tooth’s inner layers affecting the ‘pulp’ or nerve within the roots.
In most cases, root canal treatment is very successful, especially because Dr Chris Lauf (Dentist) uses a dental microscope to enhance precision and accuracy. The clinical microscope allows our dentist to visually detect fine details with apochromatic technology and great depth of field, so you can be sure you are receiving high-quality care.
What to Expect
We understand that some people are fearful or uneasy of the thought of root canal therapy. The most common misconception is that root canal therapy causes pain and/or illness and should be avoided at all costs. Ironically, the exact opposite is true. Root canal therapy does in fact ease the pain, associated inflammation affecting the rest of your body and also prolongs the life of the tooth.
Gentle Root Canals
Thanks to modern technology and anaesthetics you won’t experience any more discomfort during your root canal than a regular filling. The pain from a severe toothache, often caused by damaged and infected tissues in the tooth, can be easily remedied by the dentist removing the damaged tissue inside of the root. That’s precisely what a root canal is meant for.
