What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is a specialist procedure used to treat infection deep within a tooth. If left untreated, it can lead to pain, swelling, or even tooth loss. By carefully removing the infected pulp, cleaning the canal, and sealing the tooth, we preserve your natural smile and prevent future problems.

It’s an essential treatment that avoids the need for extraction and helps keep your bite healthy.

What does a root canal treatment involve?

Root canal treatment is a multi-step procedure designed to save a tooth that’s been infected, injured, or severely decayed. At Aesthetique Dental Care, we carry out gentle root canal treatments in Leeds using modern, precise techniques to protect your natural tooth and relieve pain.

Diagnosis & Planning

We begin with a detailed assessment of the affected tooth, including X-rays, to understand the extent of infection or damage. This helps us plan your root canal treatment with precision.

Anaesthesia

A local anaesthetic is applied to ensure you feel completely at ease. The procedure is usually painless, and we’ll talk you through every step.

Accessing the pulp

The dentist creates a small opening in the tooth to reach the infected or inflamed pulp.

Remove the infected pulp

Using specialist instruments, we gently remove the infected pulp from the root canals and clean the area thoroughly.

Cleaning & shaping the canal

The empty canals are then cleaned, shaped and disinfected to prepare them for filling, helping prevent future infection.

Filling the canal

We seal the canals with a durable, biocompatible material (usually gutta-percha) to protect your tooth from further bacterial entry.

Temporary filling (if needed)

If your treatment is completed over more than one visit, we’ll place a secure temporary filling to keep the area protected.

Restoration of the tooth

Once treatment is complete, we’ll restore the tooth with a strong, natural-looking filling or crown — depending on its condition.

Follow-up care

We may invite you for a check-up to ensure everything is healing well. Our team is always here to answer questions or make adjustments if needed.

Yes, root canal treatment is very safe with us at Aesthetique Dental Care. As experienced dental professionals, you can count on us for an effective treatment that removes your pain.

Root canal treatment doesn’t tend to hurt. In fact, it involves little to no pain or discomfort, especially when performed by one of our dental experts. Often, patients experience an overwhelming sense of relief as the pain they have been suffering from is eliminated.

A root canal treatment can last many years if the tooth is successfully treated and properly restored with a crown. It is important to keep up with your normal oral hygiene routine and attend regular dental check-ups and hygiene appointments so your dentist can monitor your treated tooth and overall oral health.
The alternative to root canal treatment is to remove the infected tooth. We will do all we can to avoid this. A missing tooth can cause problems with chewing, or affect your facial structure and appearance of your cheeks and jaw. Removing a tooth could also incur further expense, with the costs involved in fitting a denture, bridge or implant as a replacement.
Yes, a root canal treatment can be repeated on the same tooth. This is known as retreatment. The existing filling material is removed, and the root canals are cleaned and filled again. Root canal treatment may need to be repeated if the treated tooth suffers a fracture, a cavity develops, or it becomes reinfected.
While rare, it is possible for a root canal treatment to fail following the procedure. Failure is usually due to a fracture, new decay becoming present, or the restoration (crown or bridge) becoming loose or damaged. However, most treated teeth last for many years without any issues.
