What Is Root Canal Treatment?

A root canal is a procedure used to treat infection or damage in the inner pulp (nerve) of a tooth. Instead of removing the tooth, the infected pulp is carefully cleaned out, and the space is sealed to prevent future problems.

Common Signs You May Need a Root Canal:

• Persistent toothache or pain when chewing

• Sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the source is removed

• Swelling or tenderness in nearby gums

• Darkening or discoloration of the tooth

• Pimple or boil on the gums

Our Root Canal Procedure:

1. Consultation & Digital X-rays
   We start with a thorough evaluation and X-rays to assess the condition of your tooth.

2. Local Anesthesia
   To ensure a pain-free experience, we numb the area completely before starting.

3. Removal of Infected Pulp
   Using modern rotary instruments, we clean and disinfect the root canals with precision.

4. Filling & Sealing
   The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha) and sealed to prevent reinfection.

5. Restoration with Crown (if needed)
   A dental crown may be placed over the tooth to restore strength and function.
