If you’re looking for experienced kids’ dentists in Surrey for children’s root canal treatment, MyoKids in Weybridge can help. We offer cutting-edge paediatric dentistry, modern care and safe sedation options.
Root canals are recommended when infection or inflammation reaches the nerve inside a tooth, which can result from deep decay, cracks or an untreated cavity that has spread.
Root canals for children require patience, reassurance and careful planning – all aspects you can expect when treating your child’s teeth at MyoKids Dental, which offers a dedicated space for children, gentle communication, modern equipment and safe sedation options for nervous kids.
MyoKids, part of MyoDental, is proud to be an award-winning children’s dentist in Weybridge and is among one of the highest-rated dental practices on Google in Surrey & SW London for providing gentle and affordable children’s dental treatments.
How MyoKids Dental can help save your child’s tooth:
Typically recommended when decay or infection is at the top part of the nerve, but the root canals are still healthy. Our children’s dentists will gently remove the infected tissue, clean and seal the tooth, and place a filling or crown on top to protect it.
Baby root canals, or pulp therapy, treat deeper infections. MyoKids treatment involves removing infected tissue, reducing pain or swelling, and protecting the tooth so it can keep functioning and hold space for the adult tooth underneath.
Treats an erupted adult tooth that has become infected because of decay, a crack, or trauma. Our dentists carefully clean the inside of the tooth and seal it to help save the natural tooth, relieve discomfort, and avoid extraction wherever possible.
Specialist dentist Dr Prajapati (GDC 206163) provides holistic general paediatric care at MyoKids Dental. For children who need root canal treatment, Dr Prajapati’s advice helps parents decide whether to save, restore, monitor, or treat the tooth with an alternative solution.

Reviews
A child may need root canal treatment because of deep decay, tooth trauma, a cracked tooth, a dental abscess or an infection that has spread into the nerve of the tooth.
Root canal treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic so the tooth is numb during treatment. Sedation may also be discussed for very anxious children or more complex cases.
Not exactly. Baby teeth may need pulp therapy or a baby root canal, while adult teeth may need more traditional root canal treatment. Your dentist will explain which option is suitable after assessing the tooth.
It depends on the tooth, your child’s age, the level of infection and how soon the adult tooth is expected. Saving the tooth can help maintain space, but extraction may be preferable if it cannot be restored.
Sometimes. A tooth may need a crown after root canal treatment if it is weak, badly decayed or at risk of breaking. This is especially common for back teeth.
Signs can include toothache, swelling, pus, bad taste, fever, pain when biting, disturbed sleep or a small gum boil near the tooth.
Yes. MyoKids Dental is designed around children, with a dedicated children’s floor, gentle explanations and safe sedation options available when needed.
