Accent Dental are Auckland dentistry specialists in root canal treatment, and we use the most advanced technology available to help ensure your dental care and comfort.
But what exactly what is a root canal filling? Inside each of your teeth is a fine space called a root canal - containing nerves and blood vessels (collectively called the dental pulp).
If this pulp becomes diseased you end up with a possible abscess and most likely a bad toothache. Although this isn't pleasant, the good news is that rather than extract your diseased or rotten tooth, you can keep your tooth via a root canal treatment. Ultimately, it's much better for you if your teeth aren't removed.
Root canal treatment procedure
The process is as follows. First we will x-ray your teeth to identify exactly which tooth is the problem (often when you have a toothache due to disease of the root canal, surrounding teeth will also be in pain). A rubber dam (simply a latex sheet) will be placed around your tooth to isolate it, and then access to your root canal is made via drilling a whole from the top of your tooth.
The root canal is then cleaned of all infection with treatment culminating in the root canal being sealed up using a dental filling. Often, in order to restore and strengthen your tooth properly, a dental crown will be required to finish the procedure.
Sonia was unhappy with the look of her chipped and worn front teeth. She had an underlying problem caused by loss of support in most of her back teeth and chose to do a full mouth restoration.
Shalom came to see us because she didn’t like the shape and wear on her two front teeth. What I particularly loved doing for Shalom was the soft tissue recontouring on her gum, combined with her front dental veneers - such a simple procedure with stunning results.
Ed had a family member tell him he should do something about his teeth and upon reflection decided he didn’t like how short, grey and ‘gappy’ they were.
We talked him through options and first did some soft tissue recontouring, then whitening and zirconia crowns (strong enough to resist his heavy bite). We couldn’t be more thrilled for Ed.
It was a real pleasure to work on Sharla's teeth, my Practice Manager at the time, she was absolutely delighted with her new veneers.
"Their service is absolutely amazing.They provide the best treatment (also painless) and show a great understanding of a client's needs. Matt is very personable and highly professional." - Fatima W. Fatima had a combination of crowns and dental veneers.
Peter had previous dental veners, but was unhappy with the aesthetic. We took a lot of time and care crafting temporary veneers the exact shape and size he liked before committing to the final permanent ones so as to meet Peter's natural aesthetic.
We're pleased to say he's delighted with the result!
Jo had some composite work done on her front teeth many years ago, but while still unhappy with them, had also been advised not to do any work on them or they would shatter. She was also missing some lateral teeth.
Concerned with her options, she still wanted a natural look, and without uising implants or orthodontics. Jo was delighted with her dental veneers, and you can see why!

Nina had a beautiful smile, and wanted to touch up a couple of minor imperfections. Her solution involved contouring the edges of 3 teeth, along with 1 new veneer on her front, and one dental crown at the front also. She's delighted!
Leela decided to do some soft tissue recontoring to make her teeth look longer and display less of a ‘gummy smile’. Then we whitened her teeth, and did a simple plastic filling to close a small space she didn’t like...
