Root Canal Treatment in Windsor

The Root of the Problem

If you’re experiencing persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, gum swelling, or tooth discolouration, it could be a sign of a deeper issue—often an infection inside the tooth. Root canal treatment is a highly effective solution to treat this kind of problem, preserve your natural tooth, and prevent the need for extraction.

At CastleView Dental, our experienced team uses advanced techniques to ensure your root canal is safe, comfortable, and successful. If you’re suffering symptoms, don’t wait—early treatment can stop the infection from worsening or spreading.

What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal therapy is designed to remove infected or inflamed pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth), clean and disinfect the area, and seal it to prevent further issues. This treatment eliminates pain, restores the tooth’s function, and preserves its appearance.

Once complete, the treated tooth is often protected with a crown to reinforce strength and durability—allowing you to smile, speak, and chew as normal.

When Might I Need a Root Canal?

  • Ongoing or spontaneous tooth pain
  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums
  • A small bump (gum boil) near the affected tooth
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
  • Tooth discolouration or darkening
  • Previous trauma to the tooth

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, book a consultation with our friendly Windsor team today.

What to Expect During Treatment

  1. Diagnosis We’ll examine the tooth and may take an X-ray to assess the extent of the infection.
  2. Anaesthesia Local anaesthetic is used to ensure your complete comfort throughout.
  3. Cleaning The infected pulp is gently removed, and the root canal is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
  4. Filling & Sealing The canal is filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to protect it from further infection.
  5. Restoration In most cases, we’ll place a crown over the tooth for added strength and longevity.

Root Canal FAQs

How long does a root canal take?

Treatment typically lasts between 30 and 90 minutes, depending on the tooth and severity of infection. Some complex cases may require a second visit.

Is root canal treatment painful?

No. Modern root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. We use local anaesthetic to make sure you’re relaxed and pain-free throughout the procedure.

Will it affect my smile?

Not at all. The goal is to save your natural tooth. Even front teeth treated with root canal therapy will look just as bright and natural after restoration.

Will I need antibiotics?

In some cases, your dentist may prescribe antibiotics to help control infection, especially if swelling or an abscess is present before treatment.

How long will the tooth last after a root canal?

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a tooth that has had root canal treatment can last a lifetime.
