Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a procedure used to save a severely decayed or infected tooth. It involves removing the damaged pulp inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the canals, and sealing them to prevent reinfection.

Why is it done?

  • To treat deep tooth decay or infection

  • To relieve severe tooth pain and sensitivity

  • To prevent tooth extraction

  • To protect the surrounding bone and tissues from infection

  • To restore the function of a damaged tooth

 

Who needs it?

  • Patients with persistent toothache or pain while chewing

  • Individuals with swollen gums, pus, or discoloration of a tooth

  • People with cracked or injured teeth exposing the pulp

  • Anyone with deep decay reaching the nerve of the tooth

Benefits:

  • Saves your natural tooth

  • Eliminates pain and infection

  • Restores full chewing function

  • Maintains natural bite and alignment

  • Long-lasting with proper restoration and care
