Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment involves the removal of the pulp tissues from the tooth in the event that it gets infected or inflamed.

The pulp can be infected or inflamed due to either deep decay or an extensive restoration that involves the pulp, a cracked or fractured tooth due to trauma, excessive wear of enamel and dentine exposing the pulp, and sometimes as a result of severe gum disease. Signs of pulp damage may include pain, prolonged sensitivity to heat or cold, discolouration of the tooth, swelling, tenderness of the overlying gums, or a bad taste in the mouth. Occasionally there may be no symptoms at all.

Crown fell out. Replaced almost immediately. Efficient and helpful. Thanks very much. A lifesaver! -Well, at least a face saver! 😁Aurimas is extremely good.This practice is rare in that it has such good dentists and very helpful receptionists. I travel 200 miles to see them and it’s worth it. I am now moving closer to Frome.

Having been a patient of Neil Shad for over 20 years and having complete trust in him and his treatments, it was with some hesitation, when Neil was unavailable, that I was asked to see another dentist - however, I needn’t have worried!!I saw Jake West on Friday for a crown preparation work. He was patient, gentle, professional, answered all my questions and put me at ease. I believe the practice has found a ‘perfect fit’ as Neil is a hard act to follow. Thank you Jake for taking the time to make my visit a good one

Normally see Neil, but with Neil stepping back I was seen by Jake West. Amazing dentist, I had two fillings removed/replaced and had no discomfort or pain. If you are used to Neil looking after you ask for Jake as he is a super dentist. I've already asked to be seen by Jake in the future.

Neil and the team provided excellent service after my most recent visit.I had not been for a while and so felt apprehensive, as well as the fact I was attending an appointment during Covid. However, the whole process made me feel very much at ease and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and welcoming whilst also being thorough with their protocols.Neil was great as he understood my nervousness and never failed to make me feel comfortable. He provided a quick, efficient service whilst being friendly and reassuring. The whole team were excellent from the moment I walked in and Neil’s services were faultless. I would highly recommend to anyone to use Catherine Court Dentistry.

Neil and the entire team work tirelessly to ensure that each and every patient is overseen to the best of their ability. Their COVID-19 control is excellent; really thorough and consistent.We have been with this practice for many years, each and every time I attend I comment how good Neil and his colleagues are. Treatment is talked through so that the patient fully understands what is planned and it’s all carried out completely painlessly. If there are any developing issues afterwards they are sorted quickly without drama.A super practice that I have no hesitation in recommending. If you are nervous of dentists then try them, you will be pleasantly surprised.
