The benefits

Why root canal treatment beats extraction.

A root canal clears infection from inside the tooth root before it's reinforced, filled and capped, restoring full function without losing the tooth.

Saves your natural tooth

Root canal treatment clears the infection and keeps the tooth in place, rather than extracting it.

Treated under one roof

No need for a referral to an unfamiliar practice: we handle your treatment from consultation through to aftercare.

Sedation if you'd like it

Nervous about the procedure? Conscious sedation can help you relax throughout.

Full function restored

Once treated and capped, the tooth should function normally again, with no more pain.

  • I always feel comfortable attending this clinic. Dr Azhar Bakhshi & assistant Roxana are really great. I strongly recommend this dental clinic ❤️

  • I have just finished a long treatment plan with Dr. Bakhshi and I'm so glad I found this practice! Due to a failed root canal at another practice, I needed an extraction, jaw bone graft and dental implant here. I was really nervous but couldn't have been in better hands. It was a long process (approx 1 year) but they really took their time to get it right. During my treatment I actually moved to Newcastle but drove back for every single appointment, that's how brilliant they are! Special shout out to Kirsty and Roxana too. Would not hesitate to return.

  • Just finished having a new implant. Dr Aryan and his team were excellent. The reception team are also first class. As a senior citizen I was a little anxious about the procedure but need not have worried. I have no hesitation in recommending this dental clinic.

  • I had a root canal treatment with Dr Aryan and he was fantastic. He took the time to explain everything and gave me all the options before going ahead. He carried out the treatment excellently and was clearly very knowledgeable. I felt reassured all the way through. All of the staff were very warm and friendly. Thank you for making the experience as comfortable as possible.

Endodontics FAQs

Questions, answered.

A few of the things patients ask us most about root canal treatment. Still unsure about something? Just call or request a callback.

Is root canal treatment painful?

Modern root canal treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic and is generally no more uncomfortable than having a filling. It's aimed at relieving tooth pain, not causing it.

What happens if a root canal fails?

This is uncommon, but if it happens, you may need a repeat treatment or a minor surgical procedure called an apicoectomy, which removes the tip of the root. We'll talk you through the options if this applies to you.

Can I have sedation for root canal treatment?

Yes, if you're nervous about the procedure, we offer conscious sedation to help you feel calm and relaxed throughout.

How much does root canal treatment cost?

Treatment starts from £550, depending on the tooth and number of canals involved. We'll confirm the exact cost after your assessment.
