root canal treatment

Relieve pain, preserve your tooth, and restore oral function.

A root canal is a highly effective procedure used to treat infection or inflammation inside a tooth. When bacteria reaches the inner pulp, it can lead to pain, swelling, and eventual tooth loss if left untreated. At Southland Dental, we use modern techniques and technology to perform root canals with comfort, precision, and long-term success in mind.

what is a root canal?

Each tooth contains a pulp chamber filled with nerves and blood vessels. If this tissue becomes infected due to deep decay or trauma, a root canal is required to remove the affected tissue, disinfect the canal, and seal it to prevent reinfection. The tooth is then restored with a crown to protect and reinforce it.

signs you might need a root canal
  • Persistent or severe tooth pain

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold

  • Gum swelling or tenderness

  • Tooth darkening or discolouration

  • A pimple or abscess on the gums

Why Choose Root Canal Treatment?

Root canals allow us to save your natural tooth rather than extract it. This helps preserve your bite, jawbone, and overall dental alignment—avoiding more complex procedures down the road.
