About Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment involves removing infected or severely inflamed pulp from inside your tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, then filling and sealing the space. This procedure saves teeth that would otherwise need extraction due to infection, trauma, or deep decay affecting the tooth's nerve.

How it works: Comprehensive examination and X-rays. Local anaesthetic for complete comfort. Access hole creation in tooth crown. Infected pulp and nerve removal. Root canal cleaning and disinfection. Filling and sealing with rubber-like material. Crown placement for protection (usually required).

Save your natural tooth from extraction
Eliminate severe tooth pain and infection
Prevent spread of infection to other teeth

While root canal treatment has a high success rate, alternatives exist depending on your situation. Tooth extraction followed by dental implant placement offers a permanent replacement solution. Dental bridges can replace extracted teeth using adjacent teeth for support. In some cases, pulp capping might be possible for less severe infections.
