Root Canal Treatment in Richmond
Why root canal

Aiming to relieve pain and keep your natural tooth

When the inside of a tooth is infected, a root canal clears it out so that, in many cases, you can keep your own tooth.

Relieves the pain

Removes the infected pulp causing your toothache.

May save your tooth

Often lets you keep your natural tooth instead of removing it.

Helps limit the spread

Aims to reduce the risk of infection reaching the bone or other teeth.

Works normally

A restored tooth looks and functions like before.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a root canal cost in Richmond?
Root canals start from $900 for a front tooth, around $1,200 for a premolar and from $1,500 for a molar (which has more canals). Your exact fee is confirmed after an X-ray, and a protective crown is quoted separately.
Does a root canal hurt?
It has a painful reputation, but a modern root canal is usually done under local anaesthetic and often relieves the original toothache. With the area numbed, many patients find it comparable to having a filling, with some mild soreness afterwards.
How many visits does it take?
Often one or two visits depending on the tooth and infection. We will give you a clear timeline at your appointment.
Will I need a crown afterwards?
Often yes, especially on back teeth. A root-canal-treated tooth can become brittle, and a crown protects it long-term. We will discuss this and quote it separately.
What's the alternative to a root canal?
The main alternative is removing the tooth, then replacing it with an implant, bridge or denture. Saving your natural tooth with a root canal is usually preferable where possible.
