Root Canal Therapy in Yarraville

Save Your Natural Tooth, Relieve the Pain

Tooth pain can be one of the most disruptive things to deal with — and root canal therapy is often the most effective way to stop it while saving your natural tooth. At Dental4U in Yarraville, Dr Laura Latis and Dr Val Truhin bring over 30 years of combined clinical experience to root canal treatment, using a gentle, modern approach focused on your comfort throughout.

What Is Root Canal Therapy?

When the soft tissue inside a tooth (the pulp) becomes infected or inflamed — usually from deep decay, a crack, or repeated dental work — root canal therapy removes the damaged tissue, thoroughly cleans the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection. It's designed to relieve pain and save the natural tooth rather than removing it.

Signs You May Need Root Canal Therapy

• Persistent tooth pain,

• especially when biting or chewing

• Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold

• Swelling or tenderness in the gums near a tooth

• Darkening or discolouration of a tooth

• A recurring pimple or swelling on the gums
