Root canal treatment in Valencia
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth and seals the canals. Its purpose is to relieve symptoms and preserve the natural tooth when possible.
A dentist must examine the tooth and usually take an X-ray before recommending treatment.

How treatment works
With local anaesthesia, the dentist cleans, disinfects, fills and seals the root canals. A final restoration or crown may be needed.
Aftercare and cost
Mild tenderness can occur for a few days. Cost depends on the tooth, number of canals, complexity and final restoration; request a written estimate.
