Fixing Your Previously Failed Root Canal Treatments
No More Trial and Error For Your Well-Being
At Lumina Dental, we will use our best endeavours to save and keep your original teeth.
The success of root canal treatment is highly dependent on the skills of the dentist. It is a very precise dental treatment involving the removal of infected/dead nerves inside the very small root canal tubes. It requires expert diagnosis as every person has different numbers of canals within a tooth. Moreover, every patient’s canal curves differently. A more curved root is naturally harder to extract or to extract properly. No more trial and error, Lumina Dental houses dentists that are highly experienced and skilled in root canal treatments.
Root canal therapy at Lumina Dental treats the infected or damaged pulp of a tooth, eliminating pain and preventing further infection. This essential treatment preserves natural teeth, avoiding costly replacements and maintaining optimal oral health and function. Post-treatment, a crown is fitted to protect and strengthen the tooth. We prioritise patient comfort and use advanced technology, making the procedure so gentle that many patients fall asleep during treatment.

“Dr Linda is an amazing dentist! I have been to Lumina since I had my problem with root canal in 2020, and she has helped me so much with that and a lot of other things I needed 🤭! I can’t thank her enough! The place is super clean with the latest technology ever. Lovely team and very professional! I definitely recommend Lumina Dental! It is really the best place to go!”
Dauglas Leung
“I keep going to see Dr. Linda because she is gentle with her cleaning skill but still thorough. She is very patient in explaining the state of my teeth. Pairing that with the equipment she has she’s able to provide me with the insight I otherwise won’t have at other dental clinics. I will not hesitate to recommend Dr Linda to anyone.”
Ashley Stuardo
“Best dental clinic I have ever attended. Dr Linda has been seeing my family since she opened and my children love going for their dental check ups. The clinic is always clean and so welcoming. Staff are always so friendly and helpful. Thank you so much for taking care of my little family Dr Linda.”
Erica Ma
“We came to do my 6 years old dental check for the first time and as soon as he walked in he was crying but the staff at reception (Chris) was very patience. He was comforted my boy with a toy to bring home to settle him while we were waiting to see dentist. The dentist was very patience through out the check. My boy was moving all along and anxious about the check but everyone there was patience with him and managed to clean his cavity professionally. Thank you so much and we will definitely stick to Lumina dental to visit again.”

“Dr Linda is simply the best dentist in Sydney (I’ve tried many as I’ve moved around a lot). She is warm and friendly, and so is her team (Hi Nuri and Ayumi :). I usually get edgy around dentist tools and I’ve never trusted a dentist more than I have Dr Linda because she is so gentle and reassuring. Costs are fair considering the high quality service you’re getting. Bonus points that Lumina Dental smells like a spa and NOT like a traditional dental clinic! – Corinne”

“Teresa is a wonderful receptionist who sets a warm tone for an excellent experience at Lumina. Dr Linda Chen has a graceful bedside manner and pays great attention to details. After the regular check up is done, she walks me through the photos of each tooth (no rushing!) for us to discuss areas of concerns. Informative yet attentive to our conversation. Her assistant works in sync with Dr Chen – it is always great to see smooth teamwork at the dentist.Very refreshing from the run-of-the-mill churning experience, or where upselling cosmetic dental work is the name of the game. Highly recommended.”

“I’m so impressed with Dr. Linda Yoon Chen who saw my daughter this morning. She was kind and very considerate to wholeheartedly listen. I really appreciated her time and real care she took with my daughter. Thank you! My daughter was delighted when her service finished, fillings are tricky for her and extra time is needed, but she definitely wanted to go back. She loved being able to watch whatever she wanted 😉 Thanks so much. A real relief!”

Expert Root Canal Treatment: Getting Started
1. Consultation and Treatment Plan
If you have been recommended or thought about getting a root canal treatment, you will first have an initial consultation or already have a treatment plan about your root canal treatment procedure. The dentist will explain the limitations and expectations of this procedure for your specific situation. This appointment will be a great time for you to ask any questions or raise any concerns you may have!
2. Extirpation - First Treatment Appointment
At your first treatment appointment, a small opening on top of the tooth will be made to locate and clean the root canals with small files. Then the canals will be rinsed with an antibacterial solution to eliminate the bacteria and medication will be placed inside the canals. The medication will be left inside the tooth and then a temporary filling on top will be placed until your next visit. This initial step will relieve you of the intense pain you may have been experiencing.
3. Instrumentation – Second Treatment Appointment
At your second treatment appointment, usually in 1-2 weeks, the canals will be cleaned more thoroughly and the dentist will eliminate any remaining bacteria and infection left inside the root canals. Measurements of the length of the root canal will be taken and x-rays to confirm, ready for the canals to be filled at the next appointment. Another temporary filling will be placed until your next visit.
4. Obturation – Final Treatment Appointment
At your third and final appointment, usually in 1-2 weeks or when there are no more signs and symptoms of soreness or discomfort, the root is then filled. At this appointment, you can either place a temporary filling or a permanent filling on the treated tooth.
After you have completed your root canal treatment, it is best to have a consultation about getting a crown placed to provide maximum protection for the weakened tooth for the long term.
