Expert root canal treatment at Lumina Dental
Root Canal

Save Your Tooth &
End the Pain

Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless — and far more comfortable than leaving an infected tooth untreated. Our Nyeri specialists restore teeth with precision, gentle anaesthesia, and genuine care.

What Is It

More Than Just
Stopping the Pain

A root canal removes the infected pulp inside your tooth, cleans the canals, and seals it permanently — stopping the infection at source and saving a tooth that would otherwise need extraction.

Modern root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Most patients are genuinely surprised by how manageable it is.

  • Saves your natural tooth — always better than extraction
  • Eliminates infection and provides permanent pain relief
  • Completed in 1–2 visits with local anaesthesia
  • Restored with a crown — looks and functions like natural
