Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is a highly effective way to save a tooth that has become severely infected or damaged. A root canal quickly relieves the severe pain caused by an infected tooth by removing the damaged pulp. By clearing out the infected pulp, root canal therapy effectively resolves deep, persistent tooth pain.

 

  • Deep decay

  • Cracked or fractured tooth

  • Repeated dental procedures

  • Trauma to the tooth

  • Swelling of gum near the tooth

These can allow bacteria to reach the pulp, leading to pain, swelling or abscess.

Root Canal Treatment Process

  1. Numbing the tooth:
    The dentist uses local anesthesia so you don’t feel pain during the procedure.

  2. Opening the tooth:
    A small opening is made on the top of the tooth to access the pulp chamber.

  3. Removing the infected pulp:
    The diseased or dead pulp tissue is carefully removed to eliminate the source of pain and infection.

  4. Cleaning and shaping the canals:
    The inside of the tooth’s roots (the canals) is cleaned, disinfected, and shaped to prevent bacteria from returning.

  5. Filling the canals:
    The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material (usually gutta-percha) to seal them.

  6. Restoring the tooth:
    The tooth is sealed with a temporary or permanent filling.
    Often, the dentist places a crown later to protect and strengthen the tooth.

Root Canal – Does it hurt?

With modern anesthesia and techniques, it’s usually no more uncomfortable than getting a regular filling. The goal of a root canal is to relieve pain, not cause it.
