Root Canal Treatments at Museum Dental Suites

At Museum Dental Suites, we believe that every tooth deserves the very best chance of being saved. Thanks to the skill and precision of our principal dentists, Dr Wahab Shakir and Dr Fabrizio Castellari, we are often able to restore even the most complex cases — from re-doing old or failing root canals, to completing treatments that other dentists may have considered too difficult to finish.

With over 50 years of combined clinical expertise, our approach is always centred on meticulous craftsmanship, patient comfort, and long-term restoration.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a delicate procedure designed to treat an infected or inflamed tooth from the inside.

At the core of every natural tooth lies the pulp chamber, a space filled with nerves and blood vessels. When this area becomes compromised through deep decay, trauma, or longstanding dental work, it can cause pain, sensitivity, or even abscesses. Rather than removing the tooth, a root canal allows us to carefully clean the internal canals, remove infection, and seal the tooth to preserve its function, strength, and beauty.

How a Root Canal is Carried Out

Using gentle and precise techniques, we begin by creating a microscopic opening into the tooth. With advanced imaging and fine instruments, the root canals are then carefully cleaned, shaped, and disinfected. Once all traces of infection or damage have been removed, the canals are sealed with a bio-compatible material that supports stability and healing. The tooth is finally restored with a carefully crafted filling or crown, designed not only for strength but also to harmonise seamlessly with the surrounding teeth.

Why Choose Us for Complex Root Canals

• Redoing old root canals: Teeth with failing root canals are given a fresh chance with modern techniques.
• Completing difficult cases: Teeth that have been started elsewhere but left unfinished can often be restored by our experienced hands.
• Retreating complex roots: Unusual anatomy or multiple canals are treated with patience, precision, and years of refined expertise.
• We always start from one principle: if the tooth has enough natural structure worth saving, we will do everything possible to preserve it.

A Philosophy of Care Not every tooth can be saved - but at Museum Dental Suites, you will always know that all options have been explored with diligence and honesty. Whether we manage to restore the tooth or determine that removal is the only safe course, you can have peace of mind that the decision was made with your best long-term dental health in mind.

At the heart of our work is the understanding that dentistry is both science and art — combining technical mastery with a museum-level attention to detail. Each root canal we perform is treated with the same care as any highly crafted restoration: designed to bring strength back to your bite, comfort back to your smile, and confidence back to your everyday life.
