Root Canal Treatment, also known as endodontics, is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has become badly damaged or infected inside. Every tooth has a soft centre called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels that keep the tooth alive and healthy. When this pulp gets infected or injured due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe pain, swelling, and sometimes lead to an abscess. If left untreated, the infection may spread to surrounding tissues and cause more serious health problems. Root Canal Treatment removes the damaged or infected pulp to stop the infection and protect the tooth.

Root Canal Treatment works by carefully removing the infected or inflamed tissue within the tooth. The purpose of the treatment is to stop the infection from spreading while preserving as much of the natural tooth as possible. When the pulp inside a tooth becomes infected, it creates pressure and pain. By cleaning out the infection and sealing the space inside, the treatment stops the bacteria from returning and allows the tooth to heal from the inside out.

After a successful Root Canal Treatment, the tooth no longer has live nerve tissue, but it can still function normally. The outer structure of the tooth remains strong, root filling will be done, along with the help of a crown or filling being replaced, the tooth can continue to work just like any other healthy tooth. This approach allows patients to keep their natural teeth, avoid gaps in their smile, and reduce the need for more complex treatments like bridges or implants. It is a safe and effective way to protect dental health while relieving pain.

1. Consultation and Oral X-rays will be conducted by the dentist to examine the teeth and gum.
2. Local anesthesia will be applied to the treatment area.
3. The small opening will be created on the top of the tooth to reach the infected pulp inside.
4. The infected pulp will be removed from inside the tooth and its root canals.
5. The inside of the tooth will be thoroughly cleaned to remove bacteria.
6. The root canal will be shaped and prepared to receive the root filling material.
7. Root filling will be done to close the gap.
8. Permanent filling or crown will be replaced.
