Modern techniques and anaesthesia make root canal treatment comfortable. Patients may feel mild pressure during the procedure, but significant pain is rare. Sedation options are available for those who are anxious.
Treatment can usually be completed in one to two appointments, depending on the complexity of the tooth and any infection present. Dr Hilmi will provide a clear plan tailored to your situation.
Not all patients require sedation. For nervous patients or longer procedures, oral or IV sedation can be offered, administered under specialist supervision for safety and comfort.
Yes. The goal of root canal therapy is to preserve the natural tooth whenever possible, restoring function and preventing extraction.
If you are experiencing pain, sensitivity, or have been advised to consider a root canal, support is available. Our team provides root canal treatment in South East London, guided by Dr Ali Hilmi, to relieve discomfort, remove infection, and preserve your natural teeth safely and predictably.

Dr Arman & Dr Amir always do a phenomenal job, I’ve been getting dental treatment from Dr Arman for 7-8 years now and travel from Wimbledon to come to this practice. So happy with their attention to detail & exceptional customer service!
As ever, amazing service!
Everyone is always so polite, so helpful, and explain everything to me and do work that I know I can rely on.
With a busy schedule, often out of the UK, I’m not the easiest patient, but I know I can always rely on Dental Arts :-)
Thank you to all the dentists and the whole team!
Happy Anniversary!
I had the best experience with the team at London Dental Arts and couldn’t be happier with my results! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to help me achieve the smile I’d been hoping for.
Dr Arman Barfeie guided me through every stage of my composite bonding procedure, making sure I felt informed and comfortable throughout. His attention to detail, care and artistry were to such a high standard, and he really took the time to create the natural-looking smile I wanted. It was really clear that he genuinely cares about the quality of his work and achieving the best possible results for his patients.
I also had teeth whitening, which I was really pleased with. The reception team were equally lovely, always friendly and welcoming, and happy to offer helpful advice on aftercare and the whitening process. I felt genuinely looked after by everyone.
What really stood out to me was how much the whole team listened to what I wanted and took the time to understand my needs. I walked away feeling so happy and confident with my results. I couldn’t recommend London Dental Arts more highly!
My appointments are always very pleasant and everybody there is very kind.
I have always been a bit scared of dentists, but Jasmine is the first one I have met that genuinely makes me feel like she has my best wellbeing at heart. She's kind, manages my expectations and listens to my limits and helps me manage my pain (if there is any) she's communicative and shows me what she's doing / explains things clearly. She's great. 10/10 do recommend.
