Save Your Natural Tooth
Root canal treatment is a highly effective procedure designed to remove infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth, preventing the need for extraction. This treatment restores tooth function, relieves pain, and prevents the spread of infection. A root canal is performed when deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental procedures have compromised the tooth’s inner structure.
✔ Diagnosis & X-Ray: The dentist examines the affected tooth and takes an X-ray to assess the extent of infection and root canal structure.
✔ Anaesthesia & Isolation: Local anaesthesia is administered for a pain-free experience, and the tooth is isolated to keep it dry.
✔ Cleaning & Shaping: The infected pulp is removed, and the root canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected to eliminate bacteria.
✔ Filling & Sealing: A biocompatible material is used to fill and seal the canal, preventing reinfection.
✔ Restoration: A permanent filling or dental crown is placed to reinforce the tooth and restore its function.
✔ Pain Relief: Eliminates discomfort caused by infection, inflammation, or abscesses.
✔ Prevents Tooth Loss: Saves the natural tooth, avoiding extraction and complex replacement treatments.
✔ Stops Infection Spread: Protects neighbouring teeth and gums from further infection.
✔ Restores Functionality: Strengthens the tooth, allowing normal chewing and biting.
✔ Long-Term Durability: With a proper crown and good oral hygiene, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.
✔ Mild discomfort is normal after treatment and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
✔ Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it is permanently restored with a crown or filling.
✔ Maintain oral hygiene by brushing, flossing, and scheduling routine dental check-ups.
✔ Follow-up appointments ensure proper healing and long-term tooth stability.
Root canal treatment is a safe and reliable solution to preserve natural teeth, ensuring a healthy, pain-free smile for years to come.
