Root canal treatment may be needed when the inner pulp of a tooth becomes inflamed, infected, or damaged due to deep decay, trauma, cracks, or repeated dental procedures. Many patients first notice symptoms such as persistent tooth pain, sensitivity, swelling, or discomfort when chewing before seeking professional treatment.
Persistent toothache or throbbing pain
Pain when biting or chewing
Sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks
Swollen, tender, or inflamed gums
Darkening or discolouration of the tooth
Dental abscess or swelling around the tooth
Pain following dental trauma or a cracked tooth
Recurring discomfort after previous dental treatment
If left untreated, tooth infection can worsen over time and may eventually lead to severe pain, abscess formation, or tooth loss. Early diagnosis and specialist root canal treatment can often help preserve the natural tooth and prevent further complications.
Your root canal treatment begins with a detailed consultation and assessment to identify the source of tooth pain, infection, inflammation, or damage affecting the tooth. Using digital X-rays and advanced 3D imaging where required, we carefully assess the tooth and surrounding structures before recommending the most appropriate endodontic treatment plan.
Patient comfort is always a priority during treatment. The tooth is thoroughly numbed before the procedure begins, and sedation options are available for nervous or anxious patients requiring root canal treatment.
Most root canal procedures are completed within approximately 60–75 minutes using advanced microscope-led endodontic techniques designed to improve treatment precision, long-term success, and preservation of the natural tooth.
Our aim is to relieve pain, remove infection, and restore long-term dental health while helping patients feel as comfortable and reassured as possible throughout treatment.

Experiencing persistent tooth pain or signs of infection?
Our experienced endodontic team provides advanced root canal treatment in Hemel Hempstead focused on relieving discomfort and helping preserve natural teeth.
Root canal treatment is designed to remove infection from inside the tooth, relieve discomfort, and help save the natural tooth from extraction.
Modern endodontic treatment is highly effective and, with advanced techniques and anaesthesia, is often far more comfortable than patients expect.
At Landmark Dental Care, we use advanced imaging and precision equipment to provide predictable and effective root canal treatment in Hemel Hempstead.
Seeing a specialist endodontist offers key benefits, including expertise in complex cases, advanced pain management, and higher success rates for root canal treatments. At Landmark Dental we use advanced technology for precise diagnosis and treatment, focus on preserving natural teeth, and are skilled in managing dental trauma.
This specialised care ensures better outcomes, less discomfort, and a greater likelihood of saving your natural teeth.
A standard root canal typically takes 60 to 90 minutes. Complex cases, such as molars with multiple roots or infections, may require more time or a second appointment.
Simple cases involving a single root can often be completed in one visit. If you’re looking for a root canal dentist near me who works efficiently and with precision, Landmark Dental can help.
Root canal treatment may be needed when the inner pulp of the tooth becomes inflamed or infected. Common symptoms include persistent toothache, pain when chewing, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling around the gums, or darkening of the tooth. In some cases, symptoms may be mild or intermittent, which is why a full assessment and X-rays are important for an accurate diagnosis.
Modern root canal treatment is designed to be as comfortable as possible. The tooth is fully numbed before treatment begins, and advanced techniques help minimise discomfort throughout the procedure. Many patients are surprised to find that root canal treatment feels similar to having a routine filling.
In many cases, root canal treatment can successfully save a tooth that would otherwise require extraction. By removing infection from inside the tooth and sealing the root canals, the tooth can often continue functioning normally for many years with appropriate restoration and ongoing care.
The cost of root canal treatment depends on the complexity of the tooth being treated. Following your consultation, we will provide a clear treatment plan outlining all recommended treatment and associated costs. Flexible finance options are also available to help spread the cost of treatment.
Yes. Sedation is available for nervous or anxious patients undergoing root canal treatment. Our team will discuss your concerns during your consultation and explain the available options to help you feel more relaxed and comfortable throughout your appointment.
Yes, in many cases failed root canal treatment can be retreated successfully. Persistent pain, recurring infection, or inflammation around a previously treated tooth may indicate the need for further endodontic assessment. Using advanced microscope-led techniques and digital imaging, complex re-root canal treatment can often help preserve the natural tooth.
Some routine root canal treatments can be performed by a general dentist, but more complex cases may benefit from treatment by a dentist with a special interest in endodontics. Complex anatomy, cracked teeth, persistent infection, or failed previous treatment often require advanced endodontic expertise and specialised equipment.
Yes, a cracked or damaged tooth can sometimes affect the inner pulp and lead to pain, sensitivity, or infection. Root canal treatment may be required to help save the tooth and prevent extraction depending on the severity of the crack.
