Save your natural tooth — without the pain or the waiting list.
Book Your Free ConsultationIf you're living in the UK, you already know how stressful a toothache can be — especially when you can't get an appointment. NHS dental waiting lists have grown significantly, with over half of patients waiting more than a year for treatment. Even under NHS Band 2 pricing (£73.50 for the root canal), you'll often need a crown afterwards, which falls under Band 3 at £319.10. And if you go private, root canal treatment with a crown can cost between £500 and £1,500.
You're not alone. Many patients from the UK choose to travel to Turkey for root canal treatment — combining fast, expert care with significant savings. At QP Dental in Alanya, our endodontic specialists use modern techniques and equipment to make the procedure as comfortable and efficient as possible.
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontics, is a procedure designed to save a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged. The treatment involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp tissue from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection.
Without treatment, an infected tooth can lead to an abscess, spreading infection, and eventual tooth loss. Root canal therapy allows you to keep your natural tooth, maintain your bite, and avoid the need for extraction and replacement. Contrary to popular belief, modern root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than having a filling — and it can save you from far more complex and costly procedures down the line.
Our dentists take detailed X-rays to assess the extent of the infection and map the root canal structure. A precise diagnosis guides the entire treatment plan, so you know exactly what to expect.
The tooth and surrounding area are thoroughly numbed with local anaesthesia. You won't feel pain during the procedure — just mild pressure. If you're anxious, let our team know and we'll take extra steps to keep you comfortable.
A small opening is made in the crown of the tooth to access the infected pulp. The damaged tissue is carefully removed, and the root canals are cleaned, widened, and disinfected using antibacterial solutions.
The cleaned canals are shaped to receive a biocompatible filling material called gutta-percha. This seals the canals completely, preventing bacteria from re-entering.
The tooth is sealed with a temporary or permanent filling. In most cases, a crown is recommended to protect the treated tooth and restore its full strength. At QP Dental, crown fitting can often be completed during the same visit.
Some mild sensitivity is normal for a few days after treatment. Our team provides clear aftercare instructions and remains available via WhatsApp for any questions during your recovery.

In the UK, root canal treatment with a crown typically costs £500–£1,500 privately. NHS pricing covers root canal under Band 2 (£73.50) but a crown requires Band 3 (£319.10) — and that's if you can get an appointment. At QP Dental, you can save up to 70% on the combined treatment with no waiting.
Root canal treatment can typically be completed in 1–2 sessions over 2–3 days. If a crown is also needed, your stay may extend to 4–5 days to allow for laboratory work. We plan your schedule efficiently to minimise your time away from home.
Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, and most patients say it feels no different from having a filling. Any mild post-treatment sensitivity usually subsides within a few days.
We use premium gutta-percha for canal filling and high-quality porcelain or zirconia crowns crafted in our in-house laboratory. All materials meet international standards and are the same quality used in leading European clinics.
Yes. We provide a warranty on our root canal and crown work. Our aftercare support continues after you return home, and follow-up consultations are available via WhatsApp.
Root canal treatment has a high success rate — over 95% when performed correctly. In rare cases where re-infection occurs, retreatment is possible. Our experienced endodontic team uses modern techniques and equipment to maximise the success of every procedure.
If left untreated, a tooth infection can spread to surrounding tissue, cause an abscess, and ultimately lead to tooth loss. Early treatment saves your natural tooth and prevents more complex — and costly — procedures later.
