Root canal treatment is a dental treatment procedure performed when the soft tissues inside the tooth are infected or damaged. This treatment is usually applied to relieve toothache, sensitivity, or infection and to save the tooth. Root canal treatment is based on the process of removing and cleaning damaged or infected pulp tissue inside the tooth. Root canal treatment is usually completed in several stages. First, the dentist removes the infected or damaged pulp tissue and cleans the inside of the tooth. Next, a filling material is placed inside the tooth and the outer part of the tooth is repaired. Finally, the shape and function of the tooth are restored, and restorations, if any, are applied.
Root canal treatment usually relieves toothache and helps restore the health of the tooth. This treatment is important to prevent the loss of the tooth and to prevent conditions that require tooth extraction. In addition, it prevents the spread of infection to other teeth and protects oral health. Root canal treatment is usually performed under local anesthesia and allows patients to feel comfortable. Minimal discomfort or pain is felt during the procedure. However, it may take several visits to complete treatment, especially depending on the severity of the infection.
After root canal treatment, regular dental care is important to maintain the health of the tooth. The dentist may call patients for regular check-ups and recommend additional treatments if necessary to ensure that the treatment is completed successfully. In conclusion, root canal treatment is an important dental treatment procedure that allows to save infected or damaged teeth. When done properly, it relieves pain for patients, restores the health of the tooth, and prevents tooth loss. When performed by a specialist dentist, root canal treatment is usually successful and long-lasting.
After root canal treatment, it is crucial for patients to maintain good oral hygiene habits to ensure long-term success. Regular brushing and flossing, along with routine dental checkups, can help prevent future infections and complications. Root canal treatment is an extremely effective procedure for saving an infected or damaged tooth, but it is important to address any underlying causes or contributing factors to prevent recurrent infections. It is important for patients to visit the dentist for regular check-ups in accordance with ongoing care and recommendations.

I would personally like to not only thank the dentist and surgeons, but also onur and Jon, the translator batu and the receptionist each person made my experience what it was. The care and treatment was next level for me. From start to finish I was more than looked after 24 hours I was able to contact any of these with questions even down to translating information in the pharmacy when my partner needed medication whilst we was over here. I really have made friends for life treated like family which I loved thabk you so much AMAZING SMILE you have made me happy when I look in the mirror for the first time in over 20 years
All the staff are amazing and help in anyway they can I would recommend AMAZING SMILE TURKEY to everyone and family thank you so much to you all
My journey started with a meeting with Oj and Can in Belfast. Everything was organized incredibly smoothly! ✨ Upon arriving in Turkey, driver Kadir greeted me with a big smile and great warmth. He drove me from the hotel to the clinic and back every time – always on time, smiling and friendly 😊 At the clinic, I received a warm welcome from Can and Oj. I also met Batu, who always welcomed me and saw me off – a very friendly guy! I got to know the entire team and I can honestly say that I was treated like a friend, or even like a family member ❤️ A huge thank you to my wonderful dentist Gamze and nurse Humeyra! 🙏 Gamze is an outstanding specialist in her field. She works until she achieves perfection – and that perfection is my new smile! 😁✨ Big respect to the clinic owner for putting together such an amazing and warm team. I highly recommend Amazing Smile Turkey to anyone who needs a new smile or even the smallest dental treatment! 💯
Amazing service from day 1. Very caring and great communication throughout. Onur is there 24/7 to help with any problems at all and always explains in good detail. Best service in Antalya and amazing results. Would highly recommend 5*+
Initially, My wife and I had a meeting in Leeds. We found Onur and the team very friendly and knowledgeable. She was advised that 'all on 6 was the best option for top and crowns to match for bottom. Everything was explained and the price was affordable(20k cheaper than uk) so we arranged our first visit. On arrival, we were picked up at airport and taken to our hotel. We were given pick up times and were always picked up on time. Treatment started the following day, impressions were taken and some teeth extracted. Bone grafting and sinus lift were necessary. This process was pain free thanks to injections, pain killers were prescribed for her comfort over the next few days. We returned for implants and crowns to be fixed. Time was taken to reassure her throughout the whole process and the whole team were very friendly and approachable the whole time. Onur was available and willing to talk and explain everything during the whole process. The price given at initial meeting in Leeds didn't change, which I know isn't the case at some of the other dentists in Turkey. She now does have an amazing, natural looking smile and is enjoying eating things she hasn't been able to for some time. We were left feeling like friends rather than clients. Would 100% recommend Amazing Smile Turkey.
From start to finish the service was second to none really professional company looked after us really well more than happy with my new teeth we had the pleasure of having Onur as our representative he treated us like family brought us every where we needed to go the doctors were top class service would highly recommend🦷🇹🇷

Root canal treatment in Turkey — painless modern endodontics for UK and Irish patients
Modern root canal treatment (endodontics) saves teeth that would otherwise need extraction, and done properly it is painless, predictable and lasts decades. At Amazing Smile Turkey, root canal work is performed with rotary file systems, apex locators and magnification — the same technology used in UK specialist endodontic clinics — at a fraction of the cost.
What root canal treatment actually is
A root canal treatment removes infected or damaged pulp tissue from inside a tooth, disinfects the root canal system, shapes it with specialised files, and seals it with a biocompatible material. The tooth is then usually restored with a crown to protect it long-term. The procedure is painless under modern local anaesthesia — the old reputation of root canals being uncomfortable is outdated.
When root canal is recommended
Root canal is the right answer when a tooth has deep decay reaching the pulp, trauma causing pulp damage, or infection below the tooth root. The alternative is extraction followed by a bridge or implant. Preserving your natural tooth via root canal is almost always the better long-term choice when the tooth has enough structure to restore.
UK vs Turkey — root canal costs (2026)
| Treatment | Typical UK private cost | Amazing Smile Turkey guide price |
|---|---|---|
| Front tooth root canal | £400–£600 | Typically 50–70% less |
| Back molar root canal | £600–£900 | A fraction of the UK figure |
| Retreatment (redo of failed RCT) | £700–£1,200 | Competitive pricing |
| Root canal + crown combined | £1,200–£2,000 | Bundled package |
How treatment works
A root canal is usually completed in one or two appointments over a single Antalya trip. Under local anaesthesia, the dentist isolates the tooth, removes the pulp, disinfects the canals with irrigation, shapes them with rotary files, and seals them. If a crown is needed afterwards (strongly recommended for back teeth), it is fitted within the same 5–7 day trip.
Long-term outcomes
A well-performed root canal with a properly fitted crown has a long-term success rate of 85–95% at 10 years. The tooth continues to function like any other natural tooth. Regular UK or Irish hygienist visits maintain the outcome.

Frequently asked questions
- Is root canal treatment painful?
- No. Modern root canal treatment is painless under local anaesthesia. The old reputation is from decades-old techniques no longer used.
- How much does a root canal cost in Turkey?
- A back molar root canal privately in the UK is typically £600–£900. At Amazing Smile Turkey the same treatment is usually 50–70% less.
- How long does a root canal take?
- A single appointment of 60–90 minutes, or occasionally split across two appointments depending on complexity. Usually completed within one Antalya trip.
- Is a crown always needed after a root canal?
- For back teeth subject to chewing force, yes — a crown protects the tooth from fracture. For front teeth with minimal decay, a filling may be enough.
- Is root canal better than extraction?
- Almost always yes, when the tooth has enough structure to restore. Preserving your natural tooth is better than bridge or implant alternatives.
- How long does a root canal last?
- With a properly fitted crown, 10–15 years is typical, often longer. The long-term success rate is 85–95% at 10 years.
- What if my root canal fails?
- Retreatment is possible in most cases. If retreatment fails too, surgical endodontics (apicoectomy) or extraction are alternatives.
- Can all teeth be saved with a root canal?
- Most can. Teeth with insufficient remaining structure, vertical root fractures, or severe infection may need extraction instead. Your specialist will advise honestly.
- Is root canal safe?
- Yes. Modern endodontics with irrigation, rotary files, apex locators and biocompatible sealers is a safe, predictable treatment.
- Is a root canal covered by the written guarantee?
- The root canal procedure itself carries its own defined guarantee terms. The crown fitted afterwards is covered under the standard prosthetic guarantee.
