3.Is a crown needed after root canal treatment ?

Yes, usually a crown is recommended long term after a root canal treatment . Essentially after the root canal treatment is carried out , the tooth  is dead now so this means it is prone to dehydration and more likely to crack in the future  . Our root canal dentist will advise you how long to wait after endodontic treatment before crowning your tooth.

4. Do I need a referral from my own dentist?

Our root canal dentist accepts referrals from other dentists in the surrounding towns as well as self referrals so this means it is possible to book yourself in by giving us a call or booking online through our online booking system on our website www.frazerdental.ie. If you have any recent radiographs / X-rays of the tooth from your own dentist which were taken in the last 6months , it is helpful to bring these to your endodontic consultation.

5. Are root canal treatments tax deductible?

Yes , at least 20% tax back can be claimed on all endodontic treatments through the med 2 form.

6. Dark tooth ? Will my tooth go black after root canal treatment ?

Yes a tooth can darken months or years after a root canal treatment which is why we offer internal whitening to turn the shade back to a nice white colour.  We also offer composite veneers / bonding and  porcelain crowns / veneers to improve the colour if internal whitening is not suitable in your case .

7. What’s the best treatment for a dark tooth ?

Internal whitening is usually our first option as it is the least invasive treatment and allows the tooth to be whitened up in approximately 2-3 days . Internal whitening is a pain-free process which doesn’t involve drilling down your healthy tooth.

8. Is root canal treatment covered on medical card ?

Sometimes root canal can be approved on medical card so definitely book a consultation with the Frazer Dental to see what is advised.
