Signs You May Need Root Canal Treatment in Leicester

Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the pulp — the soft inner tissue of your tooth containing nerves and blood vessels — becomes infected or dies. If you are experiencing any of the following, contact our Leicester practice immediately.

  • Severe or persistent toothache that does not settle
  • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers after the source is removed
  • Throbbing pain that is worse at night or when lying down
  • Facial swelling, jaw swelling or swollen lymph nodes
  • A dental abscess or visible pimple on the gum near the tooth
  • Tooth discolouration — a darkening of the affected tooth
  • Pain when biting or chewing on one side
  • A previously treated tooth that has become painful again

Do not ignore these symptoms. An untreated infected tooth will not heal on its own and will eventually require extraction. Root canal treatment saves the tooth and eliminates the infection permanently.

What Happens During Root Canal Treatment in Leicester

We keep the treatment clear, comfortable and focused on saving your natural tooth. Most treatments are completed in one to two appointments.

Assessment and Digital X-Ray

Your dentist examines the tooth and takes a digital X-ray to assess the infection and root canal anatomy.

Local Anaesthetic

The tooth and surrounding area are fully numbed before treatment starts so you stay comfortable.

Access and Pulp Removal

The infected pulp is carefully removed from inside the tooth to relieve pain and stop the infection.

Canal Cleaning and Shaping

The canals are cleaned, shaped and disinfected using precise endodontic instruments.

Canal Filling and Sealing

The canals are filled and sealed to prevent bacteria from returning to the root canal system.

Crown or Permanent Restoration

A crown or durable filling may be recommended to protect the treated tooth from fracture.

Root Canal Treatment Leicester — Frequently Asked Questions

No. We use local anaesthetic to completely numb the tooth and surrounding area before treatment begins. The infection is what causes pain — not the root canal itself. Most patients at our Leicester practice describe the experience as no worse than having a filling placed.

Root canal treatment at Dentist 111 Leicester starts from £249. The exact cost depends on which tooth is being treated and the complexity of the infection. We discuss all costs clearly before treatment begins — no hidden fees.

Most root canal treatments at our Leicester practice are completed in one to two appointments. Straightforward cases are often completed in a single visit. More complex infections may require a second appointment to ensure complete cleaning and healing.

Yes. We offer same-day emergency root canal treatment at our Leicester practice 7 days a week including 24 hours on weekends. Call 0800 995 6891 or WhatsApp us now.

Without treatment an infected tooth will not heal. The infection will spread to surrounding bone and tissue, cause increasingly severe pain and the tooth will eventually require extraction. A root canal saves the tooth and eliminates the infection permanently.

In most cases yes. Saving your natural tooth is always preferable where possible. Natural teeth function better than replacements and maintaining them avoids the cost and complexity of implants or bridges. Your dentist will advise the best option for your specific situation.

We recommend a dental crown following root canal treatment in most cases to protect the tooth from fracture and restore full function. You may experience mild tenderness for a few days after treatment — over-the-counter pain relief such as ibuprofen manages this comfortably.

Yes. Our team at Dentist 111 Leicester is experienced in treating nervous and anxious patients. We work at your pace, explain every step before we do it and ensure you are completely comfortable throughout.

Root canal treatment has a high success rate when performed correctly. Occasional retreatment may be needed if infection persists or reoccurs. Your dentist will monitor the tooth at follow-up appointments and advise if any further treatment is needed.
