Endodontics at Giddani Health Group Ltd.
What Is Endodontics?
Endodontics is the dental specialty focused on the pulp — the soft tissue inside your tooth. When this tissue becomes infected or damaged, a root canal treatment can save your tooth and relieve pain.
If left untreated, the pulp can become infected and this may spread to the root canal, causing pain or leading to an abscess. Sometimes your tooth may look darker in colour than your other teeth, which means that the nerve inside your tooth is dead or dying. Without treatment, the infection may spread further into your jawbone and you may need to have your tooth taken out.


Signs You May Need Root Canal Treatment
Persistent toothache, especially when biting or chewing.
Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, even after the source is removed.
Swelling or tenderness in the surrounding gums.
Discolouration or darkening of the tooth.
Recurring abscesses or small pimples on the gums near the affected tooth.

What to Expect During Treatment

1. Consultation:
We begin with a detailed dental examination, supported by digital X-rays, to determine the extent of the infection and the best treatment approach
2. Procedure:
We create a small opening in the tooth to access the infected pulp. We then clean and shape the root canals using specialised instruments.
3. Filling and Sealing:
Once cleaned, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha, which seals the space and prevents further infection.
4. Restoration:
Finally, we restore the tooth with a permanent filling or crown, protecting it from future damage and restoring full function.
Most treatments are completed in one or two visits.
