Can your tooth beSaved?

Contrary to popular belief, root canal treatments are often the most relaxing procedure we provide at Wellswood & Babbacombe Dental, commonly with our patients finding themselves nodding off in the chair!

Root canal treatment (also referred to as endodontics), is the treatment of severely broken down, inflamed or infected teeth. It is generally the last treatment option available in order to save a tooth and usually the required treatment to get our patients out of dental pain.
