Endodontic Treatment (Root Canal Therapy): Save Your Tooth with Professional Care
Root Canal Therapy is a highly effective treatment for tooth infections. If you’re experiencing symptoms like toothache, discoloration, or swollen gums, this procedure could be the solution. At Martin Mylne Dental in Capalaba and Cleveland, we perform root canal therapy over three visits to restore your tooth and prevent further damage.
Here’s what to expect:
-
Anesthesia: We use local anesthesia to numb the area and ensure your comfort.
-
Access Preparation: Your dentist will make a small opening in the crown to access the infected pulp.
-
Cleaning & Shaping: The pulp is removed, and the root canals are cleaned thoroughly to eliminate bacteria.
-
Filling & Sealing: The canals are filled with a biocompatible material to prevent future infection.
-
Restoration: A dental crown is placed to restore the tooth’s strength and functionality.

Understanding Tooth Anatomy: Crown, Root, and the Importance of Healthy Pulp
Each tooth has two key parts: the crown and the root. The root extends below the gum line and contains the nerves and pulp, which provide nourishment to the tooth. If the pulp becomes infected, it can lead to tooth decay. In such cases, it's essential to remove the infected pulp to preserve the rest of the tooth.
