TREATMENTS

Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal treatment (endodontics) is not the glamorous side to dentistry but certainly an important treatment to preserve teeth, prevent removal and also costly replacements.  Root canal often comes with its own stigma of pain, poor outcomes and complications. We at Riverside Dental Practice have helped hundreds of patients realise this to be a myth.

The endodontist is our very own Dr Gakhal. With modern techniques, he is able to numb a tooth without issue and leaves you to relax to music of your choosing.  He has completed with merit a two year postgraduate diploma from the University of Chester. With this higher level of knowledge and skill, he is able to provide higher success rates using specialist equipment to save your teeth and remove infection. 

 

Dr Gakhal also takes referrals from other dentists where cases are complex, he also works closely to support other dentists with a passion to improve in this area of dentistry.

What does it treat?

The Process
