Root Canal
GET IN TOUCH WITH USSay Goodbye to Toothache
A persistent toothache is often a sign of an infected tooth, and it’s not something you should ignore.
A root canal treatment is a routine procedure to remove an infection and save the tooth.
But forget everything you’ve ever heard about root canal procedures—we make the whole process straightforward and painless.
GET IN TOUCH WITH USUnderstanding Infection
Although teeth are hard and bone-like, they are not bone as they cannot heal themselves. Every tooth is made up of four layers. Each tooth contains dental pulp below the three harder outer layers. Pulp is a mixture of connective tissue and nerve endings. These living tissues are found in the pulp chamber and the root canals.
A tooth can become infected when bacteria enter it through a cavity, chip, or crack. As the tissue tries to fight the bacteria, it becomes inflamed. This swelling presses against the nerve endings, causing severe toothache.
Like any other infection, it will spread. You could lose your tooth and develop an abscess and gum and jaw problems. An infection that spreads beyond the tooth could eventually find its way into the blood, leading to sepsis.
The symptoms of infection include:
- Toothache
- Sensitivity in tooth
- Swelling in your gums and cheeks
- Tooth turns black or grey
- Bad breath and bad taste in your mouth
- Pus around tooth
What to Expect From Your Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment is usually performed in a single appointment by our endodontic experts, Dr Tilly Rayment and Dr Amit Devlukia.
We will give an anaesthetic to prevent discomfort, tell you what to expect, and provide reassurance throughout.
The process is simple. We will remove the infected dental pulp and sanitise the tooth so it’s bacteria-free before filling the heart of your tooth using a natural material. Finally, we will close your tooth using a white filling.
You should consider returning to the clinic later to have a crown placed on the healed tooth to protect it from further damage, decay, and infection. We can discuss this at your appointment.

Save the Tooth
Root canal treatment gets to the heart of the problem. we will remove any infected matter to preserve your tooth. Don’t worry — the treatment is painless.
Stop the Pain
The toothache caused by an infection is often excruciating, affecting your ability to eat, sleep, and talk. This will be just a memory after your root canal treatment, as the pain will have gone.
Prevent the Spread
If left untreated, your infection could cause an abscess and problems in neighbouring teeth, gums, and jaw. Infections can even spread to the rest of the body. A root canal treatment removes the cause and puts an end to the infection.
Preserve Your Smile
We always aim to preserve the infected tooth. Without treatment, you will lose your tooth, leaving a gap in your smile. Early treatment helps you keep your smile as it is.

I’ve had a great experience with my braces treatment! The process has been smooth, and I’m so happy with the end result
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Rajan for the exceptional care and support he provided during my recent tooth restoration. As someone who is quite sensitive and not always easy to treat, his patience and expertise truly made all the difference. My restored tooth feels amazing, and I am incredibly thankful for his skillful hands and compassionate approach.
Went to see Luis. As always, the treatment and customer service was first class. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you!

COCO Dental made my dental implant procedure feel like a breeze, because of the exceptional expertise, care and communication I received every step of the way from their super-friendly team. Plus I have a shiny new tooth. I’d highly recommend!
Recently moved to the area, so wanted a local dental practice. Brilliant service from Dr Faizan and the rest of the team here are great – super friendly and professional. Would highly recommend.
Just over a year ago I went in, quite self conscious about my wonky teeth. After consultations and speaking me through the process, Dr Aman was able to help me choose the best approach that I felt comfortable and confident in getting my teeth straightened. I had my braces for a year, with a lot of support throughout the entire process making it easier. After my braces were taken off, I couldn’t stop smiling! My confidence is back and I can’t thank Dr Aman and the team enough. Couldn’t be happier with the results!
They’ve helped me from the start to make me gain confidence in my smile and teeth. Dr Aman & Nurse Amber was very helpful from the get go when I had my first appointment spoke me through everything and how it’s going to work all the way through to my final appointment with the finishing touches, thank you to you both for helping me out and gaining a lot of confidence
The team at Coco Dental are the most friendly and professional dental practice I have been to. Special thanks to Faizan for his excellent expertise and Aleksa for her thoroughness, they both made me feel very confident for the upcoming Invisalign treatment and knowing that I will be in safe hands!
My appointment here was excellent and went as smooth as possible. Registering as a new client and getting an appointment arranged was extremely quick and there was decent availability for picking time slots. In the appointment itself, I was treated well and the staff kept me calm through the teeth cleaning as I had particularly sensitive teeth in that checkup. Would definitely recommend for a fast, good experience at a professional Dentist 🙂
