Endodontics, or root canal therapy, is the branch of dentistry that deals with treating dental pulp damage, and is the best way to directly address the pain and save the tooth.
Generally caused by tooth decay or shock, pulp or nerve tissue damage can be an excruciating experience. Symptoms include pain while chewing, sensitivity and swelling. If left untreated, pulp damage can lead to abscessed, or pus filled infections, and eventually to tooth loss.
During a root canal procedure, infected nerve tissue is cleaned out, disinfected and replaced with filler to prevent further infection. With proper anaesthesia, root canal therapy can be a pain free process.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the government has placed dentistry on high level restrictions.
We have therefore made the difficult decision to suspend practice at City Beach Dental Centre for the near future.
If you are an existing patient of the practice and have a genuine dental emergency, please call 93858538 and you will be directed to either Tony or Kate. They will triage you, provide advice and arrange treatment as appropriate.
Please be aware that treatment options are very limited at this time and we will always endeavour to do our best for you.
Thank you for all your support over the years and look after yourselves during this difficult time.
