When a tooth becomes infected or inflamed from deep inside, the pain can be intense and it’s usually a sign that the dental nerve is affected. At Leila Hariri Dental Clinic (LHDM) in Dubai, we offer gentle, biocompatible treatments for nerve inflammation, including safe nerve filling procedures that focus on preserving your natural tooth structure while reducing pain and eliminating infection.
Our approach blends modern endodontic technology with holistic and biological principles to ensure that your treatment is not only effective but also supportive of your overall health.
What Is Nerve Inflammation in a Tooth?
Inside every tooth is a soft tissue center known as the pulp, which houses blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissues. When this pulp becomes inflamed due to decay, trauma, or a crack it can lead to intense sensitivity, pressure, or sharp pain.
This condition, called pulpitis, can be reversible in early stages, but if left untreated, it often progresses to irreversible inflammation or infection, requiring a more advanced solution such as nerve filling.

What Is a Nerve Filling?
A Nerve Filling with Inflammation Treatment, often part of a root canal therapy, is a procedure that removes the inflamed or infected pulp tissue from the tooth and replaces it with a safe, biocompatible filling material. At LHDM, we prioritize minimally invasive techniques and non-toxic materials to promote healing while maintaining the strength and function of your tooth.
Nerve fillings are done when:
- You have persistent tooth pain
- Sensitivity doesn’t go away after hot or cold exposure
- There’s swelling or pus near the tooth
- A previous filling or crown has failed
- You want to avoid extraction and preserve the natural tooth
Symptoms That May Indicate Nerve Inflammation
If you’re experiencing any of the following signs, you may need a nerve evaluation:
- Throbbing tooth pain or discomfort when chewing
- Lingering sensitivity to heat or cold
- Gum swelling or tenderness
- Discoloration of the affected tooth
- Pain that radiates to the jaw, ear, or head
Early detection is key. At LHDM, our advanced imaging and diagnostics help identify inflammation before it turns into a more serious infection.

Holistic & Pain-Free Nerve Filling Procedure at LHDM
At Leila Hariri Dental Clinic, we combine advanced technology with a whole-body wellness approach to make your experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect:
1. Gentle Diagnostics
We begin with a thorough clinical exam, digital X-rays, and, if needed, 3D scans to assess the depth of inflammation and determine the best course of treatment. Our low-radiation imaging keeps safety a top priority.
2. Biocompatible Nerve Removal
If the nerve is infected beyond repair, we remove it carefully using microscopic tools to ensure precision. The inside of the tooth is then cleaned using ozone therapy or other non-toxic antimicrobial solutions to eliminate bacteria without harsh chemicals.
3. Safe and Effective Filling
Instead of traditional gutta-percha (which may not be biocompatible for all patients), we use biological alternatives such as MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate) or other advanced filling materials that are body-friendly and long-lasting.
4. Tooth Restoration
The tooth is then sealed with a strong filling or crown to restore full function. We only use non-toxic, BPA-free dental materials to ensure that your body’s wellness is never compromised.
Why Choose a Biological Approach to Nerve Filling?
Traditional root canals may remove infection, but they often overlook systemic effects or long-term risks associated with toxins and materials. At LHDM, our biological dentistry philosophy focuses on:
- Eliminating infection while protecting overall health
- Using materials that are safe and compatible with your body
- Minimizing inflammation through ozone therapy and laser disinfection
- Preserving the natural tooth whenever possible
- Supporting the immune system post-treatment
We don’t just treat the tooth we support the whole person.
When Is Tooth Extraction a Better Option?
In some cases, the tooth may be too damaged to save. If a nerve filling is not the right solution, we’ll guide you through safe, pain-free tooth extraction and recommend biocompatible dental implants or non-metal alternatives as replacements.
Our goal is to preserve what we can, and replace only when necessary with solutions that prioritize your well-being.
