Endodontic Case Studies

The three cases below are molar root canal treatment cases that were completed by Natalie and demonstrate healing at the one year review appointment. In the pre-operative radiographs, the teeth in question have radiolucent or ‘dark’ areas beneath their roots, indicating infection of the root canal system. The white lines are the root fillings that were placed after the root canals were shaped and disinfected. Healing is seen at the one year review, demonstrating a successful outcome.

Root Canal Retreatment

The case below is an upper molar root canal retreatment case. The patient was referred to Natalie as they were still experiencing pain following treatment with their own dentist. The restoration and root filling was removed from the tooth and a missed root canal was located. The canals were prepared, disinfected and filled and the patient is now symptom free.

Testimonials of Natalie's work

“I had root canal treatment a couple of years ago, but recently started to experience pain from the same tooth. I went to my regular dentist, who explained that I had two options: have the tooth removed or be referred for retreatment. I wanted to try and save the tooth, so I asked to be referred to The Carriage Works, as I was impressed with their reviews. I was seen by Natalie and I immediately felt at ease. The whole procedure was pain free and I am pleased to say that the tooth has been saved. I would highly recommend Natalie, who, with the help of her nurse Sue, made me feel extremely relaxed. Jess, on reception, was really helpful. I would highly recommend.” CD by email.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This was the first visit for me and my daughter who has some additional needs. We were immediately put at ease by the kind and sympathetic approach of our dentist Natalie who explained exactly what needed to be done in a clear and understandable way. She took lots of time during the examination to make sure that we were comfortable and introduced me to some new technology as I couldn’t tolerate the conventional x-ray method. We came away with a clear plan of what needed to be done and felt reassured that things weren’t as bad as we thought because we hadn’t been to a dentist for a while.” AF via Facebook.
