Endodontics & root-canal care
Endodontics treats disease inside the tooth and around its root. Planning considers whether the tooth can be restored, the complexity of its canals and the need for a final protective restoration.

Planning your care
Ask the treating service for a written plan. Appointment numbers and time away depend on the procedure, results and individual needs.
- What examination is needed before treatment, and are staged procedures or treatment of both sides planned?
- Ask for separate dates for treatment, healing reviews, adjustments and any final restoration or device fitting.
- Which restrictions and follow-up arrangements apply before travelling or returning to normal activities?
