Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and shapes the canals and seals them, allowing a natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. At AURUM endodontic care is provided by a dentist focused on conservative dentistry and endodontics. Pricing reflects how many canals a tooth has — front teeth, premolars and molars are charged differently. The aim is to relieve pain and preserve the tooth for the long term.

Root canal treatment, or endodontics, treats the soft tissue inside a tooth — the pulp — when it becomes inflamed or infected through deep decay, a crack or trauma. During treatment the dentist removes the affected pulp, carefully cleans and shapes the fine canals inside the roots, disinfects them and fills them with a sealing material, so the tooth can be retained instead of being taken out. A tooth that has had root canal treatment is often restored afterwards with a filling or a crown to protect it. At Centrum Medyczne AURUM endodontic treatment is carried out by a dentist whose focus includes conservative dentistry and root canal therapy, with the clinic's on-site radiology used to assess the roots and confirm the canals are fully treated. Local anaesthesia is included so the procedure is comfortable, and complex teeth may be completed over more than one visit. Pricing is transparent and based on tooth type because back teeth have more canals and take longer: 1,000 zł for anterior teeth, 1,300 zł for premolars and 1,800 zł for molars, with a 300 zł option to begin treatment and relieve acute pain. Root canal treatment is associated with saving a natural tooth and resolving the pain of an infected pulp; the dentist will confirm whether the tooth is suitable to save or whether another approach is needed at assessment.
