Endodontics

Common signs include persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers, swelling or tenderness in the gums, or a tooth that has darkened. A check-up and X-ray will confirm whether the nerve is infected.

Modern root canal therapy is done under local anaesthesia and feels similar to getting a routine filling. It actually relieves the pain caused by the underlying infection rather than causing it.

Yes. In addition to standard local anaesthesia, we offer sedation options for anxious or particularly nervous patients undergoing root canal treatment. Just let our team know beforehand so we can prepare the right option and make your visit as comfortable as possible.

In most cases, yes — especially for back teeth. A crown restores the tooth's strength and protects it from fracture after the nerve has been removed.

Most cases are completed in one to two visits, depending on the tooth's location and the complexity of the infection.

The infection can spread, leading to an abscess, bone loss around the tooth, and eventually tooth loss. Early treatment is the best way to avoid more complex procedures later.

Pricing depends on the tooth: RM1,000–RM1,200 for front teeth, RM1,200–RM1,500 for premolars, and RM1,600–RM1,800 for molars (case by case). A ceramic crown afterward is RM2,500, or RM1,500 for a PFM crown. Consultation is free.
