Endodontics (Root Canal)

Root Canal Treatment in Welling (Bexley)

Lets get to the root of the pain

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the treatment of teeth roots, dental pulp, and surrounding tissues. Endodontic therapy can save diseased or damaged teeth, with extraction being the last resort. At Karia Dental, our dentists have a special interest in Endodontics.

What to Expect During Treatment

We utilise advanced ProTaper and ProFile rotary endodontic systems to ensure the highest quality of care.

ProTaper Benefits:

  • ProTaper® Universal NiTi files combine speed, quality, simplicity, and safety for shaping root canals.
  • Shaping files up to size ISO 050 (also available as manual files).
  • Specially designed files for retreatment procedures.
  • Solutions dedicated to obturation that are perfectly matched to the tapers of ProTaper finishing files, including paper and gutta-percha points.
  • The multiple taper design makes canal shaping easier, safer, and more efficient.

ProFile Benefits:

  • ProFile instruments offer maximal security due to their non-cutting “Radial Line” profile and U-shaped section.
  • The multiple taper design allows for successful treatment of the three canal thirds using the crown-down technique.
  • High flexibility enables soft canal shaping, especially in the apical third.

Symptoms Indicating
the Need for Root Canal Treatment

  • Significant tooth or jaw pain, especially when lying down.
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold.

Radiographs may show dark areas around the apices or ends of the root, indicating potential nerve damage and the need for root canal therapy.
