Endodontics
The Cure for Dental Pain and Infection
There’s never a good time to get a toothache, but when a tooth is infected, the pain is often too unbearable to eat, sleep, or function. This severe discomfort often brings worry and anxiety.
Dental infections need treatment. Ignoring the pain in the hope it will go away could cause you to lose the tooth, and the infection will spread.
Root canal treatment gets to the heart of the problem. At Dental Aesthetica, our endodontic specialist, Dr. Shakil Umerji, will use this procedure to stop the spread of your dental infection, alleviate discomfort, and save your smile.

How Does a Tooth Become Infected?
Every tooth has different layers, and at the core, there is a collection of living cells, nerve endings, and connective tissue called ‘dental pulp’. The living tissues continue deep into your teeth, right down to the bottom of the roots.
If your outer enamel develops a cavity, it can expose the dental pulp, heightening the risk of infection. Once bacteria enter the tooth, the tissue in the pulp chamber becomes inflamed and presses against the never-ending, resulting in severe pain.
This is a warning sign, and you need to take action. Without root canal treatment, you may lose your tooth, abscesses may form, and the infection could affect adjacent teeth, gums, and jaws. If you have an infection, your symptoms may include:
- Sensitivity to temperatures
- Pain in and around your tooth
- Swelling in your gums, jaw, and cheeks
- Pus around the root of your tooth
- A black or grey tooth
- An unpleasant taste in your mouth
- Bad breath
- High temperature

You’re in the best hands at Dental Aesthetica. Our experienced endodontist Dr Shakil Umerji specialises in this procedure and uses the latest technology and methods to improve experience and outcome.
Root Canal Treatments Explained
A root canal treatment is a routine procedure. At Dental Aesthetica, this is performed by our specialist endodontist Dr Shakil Umerji. It removes infections and infected matter from the pulp chamber and root canals.
We understand this may cause stress and anxiety. Our team is skilled and compassionate, and we’ll ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure.
Before we begin, we’ll take X-rays to understand how the infection is affecting your tooth. We’ll use this to guide our planning.
Next, we’ll provide an anaesthetic so you won’t feel any pain before moving on to remove the bacteria skillfully.
Once we’ve removed all the infection and sanitised the tooth, we’ll fill it with a natural material called a gutta percha before closing the tooth with a filling.
After your root canal treatment, we may recommend a dental crown. This will cap your tooth and protect it from further infections.

Cheshire’s Most Talked-About
What patients say about restorative, cosmetic and general dentistry from Dental Aesthetica.
Adam Draper
I’ve had a range of treatments over the last year from both Dr Adnan and Dr Amir, getting treatments to clean, whiten and straighten my teeth. The entire team made me feel welcome, re-assured me about my anxiety around having work done on my teeth, and supported me in every way during the process. They were transparent about pricing, the process and presented me with the pros and cons of each option. I fully recommend them and their services!

Chris Whalley
Came in for an emergency appointment through a recommendation, and as someone who isn’t great with the dentist, my experience was by far and away the best I have ever had. From the greeting at reception, to the conversations to put me at ease before and after the extraction due to a dental abscess, the service was exceptional from start to finish!
Kimjo Larsen-Taylor
The staff at dental Aesthetica are fabulous! Debbie is really supportive, Demi is just an all round delight and Dr. Adnan is thorough, communicates well and truly cares about a quality service. Can’t recommend the whole team highly enough. And I love my new teeth!
Cass Jayne
I cannot thank the team and dentist at dental aesthetica enough. I suffer greatly with anxiety around dental care After meeting with a dentist, he expressed that my tooth could in fact be saved and talked me through the process of this. Throughout the whole process I felt relaxed and calmed, the knowledge given to me was extensive and I am super happy to say that the a visit to the dentist doesn’t feel quite as scary anymore. Thank you!
Mehwish Mareen Cheema
If you’re looking for a top quality dental experience, I cannot recommend Dental Aesthetica enough! I was blown away with how quickly they were able to see me for an emergency wisdom tooth removal. Adnan and Debbie showed great empathy and care towards the pain it was causing me and I cannot thank them enough for making me feel at ease. Adnan provided me with a written aftercare advice which I truly appreciated! I cannot wait to come back for more treatments.
Nathan Mayall
Always a great experience from the team at Dental Aesthetica. They’re accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. Appointments have never been any trouble to schedule, with follow up reminders sent too. Thanks so much!
Gary McFadyen
The dentist was very professional and advised me of all the options I had to fix or remove the tooth. I would definitely recommend if you are struggling to find an NHS dentist or just need to be helped asap, I would certainly be visiting again if I had to. Clean, professional and a very happy experience all around.
