Root Canal Treatment in Dorking

Root canal treatments are used as a last resort to save teeth when the blood or nerve supply has been infected. If you find yourself in need of one our Dorking dentists will do everything possible to make sure your treatment is successful.

The dental pulp is the soft tissue that’s in the middle of each tooth. This area contains the tooths’ blood and nerve supply. If bacteria gets into this space and causes an infection, then a root canal treatment is needed to correct it

Benefits of Root Canal Treatments

The Root Canal treatment Process

The root canal procedure in Dorking typically take two treatments to complete. During the initial visit, your dentist will eliminate all infected tissue from the tooth and protect it with a temporary filling. When you come back, the transitory filling is removed and substituted with a permanent one. Depending on how damaged the impacted tooth is, we may suggest that you further shield it using a crown. The goal of the treatment is to completely get rid of the infection from the tooth. Since it is a complicated procedure, it mostly entails two visits, or more, to see one of our Dorking dentists. Once the treatment area has healed, you should take care of your teeth by brushing and flossing regularly, eating healthy foods and visiting the dentist on a regular basis. Taking these steps will help to keep your teeth strong and healthy and lower the chance of needing another root canal in the future.

   I had an emergency filling repair. I live in devon and am visiting the S.East. They got me an appointment within 48hrs. The treatment was fast and pain free. The dentist and assistant are of very high quality and caring. My recommendation is highly rated for this practice.  Thank you.

   Totally recommend Dorking Dental Practice in Dene Street. I chipped a tooth and was in a lot of pain as it was sharp. I couldn't get an appointment with my own practice and a colleague recommended DDC so I walked in praying they had space but not too hopeful. Another patient was running late so Dr Iqbal treated me in her lunch hour. Staff couldn't have been nicer and the temporary fix is seriously good and very smooth. Considering moving across to here. Thank you Dr Iqbal and Mark on Reception who was super lovely in getting me seen.

   The team at Dorking dental are absolutely fantastic! Mark is great and will always keep you updated with your booking and advise when other slots become available. Dr Samera Iqbal is the best dentist I have ever come across. As a nervous patient, she will always take time to explain what the procedure is, and what the best solution is. Most importantly she will make sure you are completely comfortable before and throughout the procedure, I wouldn't use anyone else!
