Root Canal Treatment in Kidbrooke Village
Every tooth deserves a chance!
Treatment Overview
Is a toothache keeping you awake all night? Throbbing pain, extreme sensitivity, or deep cavities may indicate that the nerve in your tooth is infected. But here’s the good news—tooth extraction isn’t your only choice! With our state-of-the-art root canal treatment in Smile 4 U – Kidbrooke Village, we eliminate infection while preserving your natural tooth. Designed for maximum comfort, RCT is a hassle-free, painless procedure that helps you regain a strong, healthy smile without the stress of traditional dental treatments.
What is Root Canal Treatment?
The root canal is a space within the roots of the tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue, also known as the tooth pulp. When the pulp becomes infected due to decay, accidents, or fractures, it can result in extreme pain and inflammation.
Root canal therapy is a procedure that removes diseased or inflammatory tissue from a tooth’s root (the canal). RCTs remove infected pulp, disinfect the canal, and seal it to prevent future complications—all while preserving the tooth’s natural structure.
Who Can Get Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment in Smile 4 U – Kidbrooke Village is helpful for anyone with pulp injury or infection, such as:
- Consistent toothaches, especially those that worsen at night.
- Chronic sensitivity to hot, cold, and sweet foods.
- Swollen and painful gums surrounding a sore tooth.
- A tooth that has become discoloured or darkened due to injury or decay.
- A gum boil or pimple indicates a dental abscess.
If you notice any of these symptoms, visit us at Smile 4 U immediately!

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment
Pain relief

Prevents the spread of infection
RCTs can minimise the spread of the infection, preventing it from affecting nearby teeth or jawbones.
Preserve the natural tooth and its function
This saves your natural tooth while eliminating the necessity for extractions.
What Our Patients Say
Fantastic practice. Lovely dentist but the hygienist is absolutely brilliant! Having sensitive teeth, i advised her I was sensitive to hot and cold water. She used warm water to clean my teeth and I left with a big fat smile on my face. I already booked my next appointment!
Karen is absolutely lovely. She is fabulous at her job. Great on the phone and certainly makes you feel welcome.
They would be lost without her.
Cheers Karen
Customer service by receptionist is always friendly and chatty.
Mr Pourezza always quick to see you and get it done efficiently.
Thank you 🙂
I had an emergency dental crisis. I’ve never been to this clinic before as my Dentist is in London Bridge. I live in Kidbrooke Village and this is local to me, and since it was an emergency and everywhere I had called were fully booked, I had no other choice but to give it a go. I’m so glad I did. The dentist is so lovely, and he did a stellar job! It was pain-free and completed within minutes. There was even complete transparency with the price.
Thank you very much for your assistance today!
Frequently Asked
Questions
Find the answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding the treatment below:
What happens if I avoid root canal treatment?
Ignoring an infected tooth can lead to major complications such as abscess, jawbone damage, and tooth loss. Timely therapy, such as using an RCT, is crucial.
Can children undergo root canal treatment?
Yes, children can have root canal therapy if necessary. We personalise the procedure and use child-safe dental cements to match their individual needs while providing a relaxing experience.
Is root canal treatment painful?
Modern root canal treatments use local anaesthetic to numb both the tooth and the gums that surround it, ensuring complete comfort. Post-treatment discomfort is minor and readily treated with over-the-counter pain medications.
The Treatment Process
Every patient’s experience is unique, but this is what you can expect when you start treatment with the Smile 4 U Dental Practice.
Consultation
We use X-rays to assess the current condition of your tooth, determine the need for a root canal, discuss the costs of root canal therapy, and create a treatment plan.
Treatment
Before accessing the root canals, we numb the area with local anaesthesia. We then remove the infected pulp, clean and shape the canals, and put a temporary filling.
Happy smiles
A permanent filling and a dental crown are then used to restore the tooth’s original appearance and function. Follow-up visits have been scheduled for review.
Unbearable toothaches should no longer interfere with your daily life
With root canal treatment in Smile 4 U – Kidbrooke Village is now painless, quick and easy.
