Root Canal Waterloo For A Healthier Smile
Is there a problem with your tooth? A root canal (endothontics) can save and restore your smile to a 100% by protecting the damaged tooth. Sydney Dental Surgeons provides comfort and care at every stage of the process. Whether it’s pain, sensitivity, or just a nagging feeling something isn’t right, we’ll give you the expert care you deserve.
Endodontics is a way of protecting your tooth if it has been damaged from the inside. This happens when the pulp, which is the innermost soft part of your tooth, becomes inflamed in most cases because of infection caused by deep decay, a crack, or even trauma. Instead of removing the tooth, we focus on saving it with root canal treatment, so your tooth can heal and you can avoid gaps or needing extra dental work later. It’s a long term fix that makes eating and talking feel normal again.

Root canal treatment FAQ
The most common misconception about root canal therapy is that it’s painful, when it’s actually the tooth infection itself that causes pain. Endodontic treatment doesn’t usually hurt more than any other general dental procedures, as it’s carried out under local anaesthetic. If you have dental anxiety, we can discuss other types of sedation to help you feel more relaxed.
Any pain and discomfort you may feel following the procedure can be managed by taking painkillers and other medication.
Endodontic therapy is a routine dental procedure with a high success rate and low risk of complications. However, we’ll make sure you’re aware of these risks before you agree to the treatment.
In some cases, a tooth may become infected again following a root canal. Depending on its condition, we may perform another endodontic treatment or may have to extract the tooth.
There’s a chance that a treated tooth could darken over time or come loose and need to be extracted. It’s important to brush and floss the tooth as normal to help keep bacteria at bay.
If you have any unexpected symptoms or side effects after your root canal at Sydney Dental Surgeons, contact us to make an emergency appointment.
The cost of root canal in Sydney depends on what type of tooth is infected and how severe the infection is. We’ll give you an estimate for the cost during your initial consultation, so you’ll have an idea of what to expect.
Endodontics falls under major dental and may or may not be covered by your health insurance depending on your level of cover. Children’s treatments are covered by CDBS if your child is eligible.

Root canal therapy is the only treatment that can save and restore an infected tooth.
If a tooth is too badly damaged to repair, the only option may be an extraction to prevent the infection from spreading. Our dentists will always recommend a root canal over extraction if it’s possible.
