Root Canals.
We understand that root canals have a bad reputation, but they are actually one of the most effective ways to alleviate dental pain and eliminate the need for extraction. At Tranquil Dental in Wokingham, our root canal treatment is straightforward and virtually painless, helping to save your smile and relieve any discomfort you may have.
How Does Root Canal Treatment Work?
Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, is used to remove and treat infections or inflammation inside a tooth, which, if left untreated, can lead to severe pain, abscesses and even tooth loss!
During the procedure, at our Wokingham-based dental practice, we gently remove the infected soft tissue, clean the root canal system and seal the tooth to prevent reinfection. The affected tooth is then usually restored with a dental crown for added protection.
Think You Need A Root Canal in Wokingham?
Here are the top signs you might need a root canal:
- Ongoing, severe tooth pain.
- Pain when chewing/biting.
- Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold foods and beverages.
- Swollen gums near the affected tooth.
- Darkening or discolouration of the tooth.
*An initial check-up is required for this treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the root canal procedure last?
Usually around 60-90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the case. Front teeth often require less time, whereas molars may necessitate a second visit. But don’t worry. We’ll always let you know what to expect before treatment commences!
Is there an alternative to root canal treatment?
The only real alternative to root canal treatment is a tooth extraction. And while this might seem like the quicker fix, removing a tooth comes with its own disadvantages, namely shifting teeth, difficulty chewing and bone loss over time.
