Natural tooth kept
Root canal treatment removes the infected nerve from inside a tooth, cleans and shapes the canals and seals them, so the tooth can stay and the pain can stop. At Bedford it is from £395 for an incisor, £445 for a premolar and £495 for a molar, under local anaesthetic, usually over one or two visits.
It is the treatment that saves a tooth which would otherwise be extracted, and a tooth is nearly always worth saving. A crown often follows, to protect what is left.

Seal
The roots are filled and a temporary filling protects the tooth while it settles.
-

Once the infection has cleared, the tooth gets a permanent filling or a crown.

It is done under local anaesthetic and should feel much like having a filling. Most people are relieved that the pain they came in with goes away.
