Broken teeth and tooth pain in Neutral Bay
A broken tooth that hurts to bite often needs a root canal specialist, because the damage may reach the nerve. Other reasons people in Neutral Bay see us:
- Pain lingering after hot or cold
- A throbbing ache that keeps you awake
- A swollen gum beside a molar
- A previous root canal aching again
We provide endodontic care across the Lower North Shore from one clinic in Crows Nest.

Root canal treatment for Neutral Bay teeth
A broken tooth is not always a lost tooth. The right treatment depends on the diagnosis, and your own dentist places the final crown.
- Cracked tooth treatment, from diagnosis to repair
- Root canal treatment for Neutral Bay patients in pain
- Retreatment of failed root canals, including missed canals
- IV sedation if nerves make treatment hard
Why a specialist sees what others may not
The working space inside a tooth is tiny and cannot be seen directly. Dental operating microscopes magnify and light the canal openings.
Sometimes a crack or infection is suspected but the X-ray looks normal. A CBCT scan then gives a 3D view of the tooth and bone. It is taken in the clinic, so there is no separate imaging appointment. Day surgery facilities across the hall support IV sedation.
How it Works
From first phone call to finished tooth, there are three parts.
Diagnosis and plan
At the first visit we test the tooth, examine it under the microscope and take imaging if needed. We then explain whether it can be saved, what treatment involves and its fee.
Treatment in Crows Nest
Most root canals and retreatments take one or two visits under local anaesthetic. The experience is comparable to a filling. IV sedation can be arranged ahead for those who need it.
Crown with your dentist
Your general dentist receives a report and images once treatment is finished. They place the permanent restoration, usually a crown on a back tooth, which helps protect the root-filled tooth from cracking.
Why Neutral Bay patients trust Specialist Endo
The practice is led by two specialist endodontists. Dr Omar Ikram holds a BDS (Otago), FRACDS, MClinDent (London), MRD (Edinburgh), FICD and FPFA, and co-invented the EndoPrep app. Dr Jasmine Holgate, with a BDent, DClinDent and FICD, completes the team.
Their Crows Nest clinic is a purpose-built endodontic facility with operating microscopes, CBCT imaging, rotary instrumentation and ultrasonic cleaning systems. Anxious or phobic patients can have IV sedation, using the day surgery facilities across the hall.
For dentists in Neutral Bay
Dentists on Military Road and elsewhere in the North Sydney Council area can send patients using the online referral form. A recent periapical radiograph, the tooth number and a short note on symptoms and previous treatment are all we need. The patient returns to you with a written report and images.
Neutral Bay questions, answered
Practical answers on travel, cost and aftercare for Neutral Bay patients.
What can be done for a broken tooth in Neutral Bay?
Quite a lot, if it is seen early. We check how deep the break runs, using the microscope and CBCT imaging. If the nerve is exposed or infected, a root canal can often save the tooth. Your own dentist then places a crown.
Who can help with bad tooth pain near Neutral Bay?
Phone (02) 9129 0009 as early in the day as you can and say you are in pain. We will offer the earliest available appointment, 4 to 6 minutes away by car. You do not need to wait for a referral before calling.
Should I take the bus or drive from Neutral Bay?
Either works. Driving along Falcon Street takes about 4 to 6 minutes outside peak. The Hume Street council car park gives 2 hours free. Buses run along Military Road and Falcon Street. After IV sedation you will need someone to drive you home.
How do I find out what a root canal will cost?
Book a consultation. After examining the tooth and any imaging, we explain the recommended treatment and its fee before you decide. The cost varies with the tooth, the number of canals and whether it is a first treatment or a retreatment.
Do I go back to my own dentist for the crown?
Yes. Our role ends when the root canal is completed and sealed. We send your dentist a report and images, and they place the final crown or filling. Book that visit soon, so the tooth is not left unprotected.
