About me
Angel Ognemirov — endodontist for Loughborough
Root canal treatment that is precise in the chair and calm in the room. A short introduction to the clinician, the qualifications behind the care and the way appointments are run.
Angel Ognemirov Endodontist
Angel Ognemirov is an endodontist with an MSc in Endodontics from the University of Chester. Alongside his endodontic training he has completed courses in oral and intravenous dental sedation at Guy's Hospital in London, which informs the way he looks after patients who find dental treatment difficult.
Much of Angel's work involves people who have put off treatment because of anxiety. His appointments are planned around them: each step is explained before it happens, local anaesthetic is checked before work begins, and there is always time to pause. The clinical approach is precise and modern; the atmosphere is deliberately calm.
Angel also holds a certificate in Restorative Dentistry — so the final restoration of a root-treated tooth is always part of the plan — and is an active member of the Society for the Advancement of Anaesthesia in Dentistry (SAAD).
His aim for every patient in Loughborough and the surrounding area is the same: to relieve pain, treat the cause and keep the natural tooth wherever it can be kept.

How appointments are run
Every case starts with diagnosis: listening to how the pain behaves, testing the teeth and taking the X-rays needed to confirm which tooth is responsible and whether it can be restored. You will know what has been found, what is recommended and why before any treatment begins — and the fee is confirmed in writing at the same time.
Treatment itself is carried out under local anaesthetic that is checked before work starts. You can pause at any point, and appointments are long enough to finish without hurry. Patients with significant dental anxiety can discuss sedation options following assessment.
Keeping your natural tooth
Modern endodontics offers more ways than ever to keep a tooth that is painful, infected or has had a root filling fail: root canal treatment, retreatment and, in selected cases, microsurgery. Where a tooth cannot be saved predictably, you will be told so plainly and the alternatives discussed with you and your dentist.
Working with your dentist
You remain a patient of your own dentist, who places the final crown or filling after treatment and continues your routine care. After each visit your dentist receives a report with X-rays and recommendations so that your care joins up. Referrals are welcome, and patients may also contact the practice directly.
