Speciality Care at Dental Touch
A tooth in pain doesn't automatically mean an extraction. At Dental Touch, root canal treatment is planned around a clear X-ray diagnosis, careful cleaning of the infected canal, and a proper seal — with the goal of saving your natural tooth and stopping the pain for good.

X-Ray Planning
Root canal treatment has a reputation it doesn't quite deserve — the pain people fear usually comes from the infection itself, not the treatment that relieves it. At Dental Touch, every root canal case starts with an X-ray to see exactly what's happening inside the tooth, before any drilling begins.
We treat infected or inflamed pulp in front teeth, premolars and molars alike, and we also manage retreatment when a previous root canal hasn't fully healed. Every case is approached individually — the number of visits, the anaesthesia and the follow-up plan are matched to your tooth's condition, not a fixed routine.
Our approach is simple: diagnose the source of the pain precisely, clean and seal the canal thoroughly, and follow up to confirm the tooth is healing and the infection is gone.
😣 Severe, throbbing or persistent tooth pain
🥶 Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
🍽️ Sharp pain when chewing or biting down
🔴 Swelling or a tender bump on the gums
⬛ A tooth that has darkened or discoloured
🕳️ A deep cavity that's reached the tooth's nerve
Tooth pain rushed straight to extraction can mean losing a tooth that a proper root canal could have saved. Here's how a Dental Touch consultation is different.

Q1. Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. Dental Touch offers a free assessment, including an X-ray where needed, before you decide on treatment.
Q2. Is root canal treatment painful?
The procedure itself is done under local anaesthesia, so you shouldn't feel pain during it. Most patients report significant relief once the infected tissue is removed.
Q3. How many visits does it take?
Some cases are completed in a single sitting, others need two or more visits depending on complexity. Your doctor will outline the expected number of visits during your assessment.
Q4. Root canal or extraction — which is better?
Saving your natural tooth is generally preferable when it's salvageable, since it preserves normal chewing function and prevents shifting of neighbouring teeth. Your doctor will confirm whether extraction is genuinely the better option in your case.
Q5. Will I need a crown after root canal treatment?
Often, yes — a crown protects a root-canal-treated tooth, which can become brittle over time. Your doctor will confirm if this applies to your specific tooth.
Q6. Can a tooth get infected again after a root canal?
It's uncommon but possible. If reinfection occurs, retreatment can often still save the tooth — regular checkups help catch this early.
Q7. How should I care for my tooth after treatment?
Avoid biting hard on the treated tooth until it's fully restored with a crown or filling, and maintain normal oral hygiene. Your doctor will give specific aftercare instructions.
Q8. Do I need a referral to consult at Dental Touch?
No. You can book a free consultation directly, either online or by calling us — no referral needed.
