Root Canal Treatment
Understanding Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure performed to treat infected or damaged tooth pulp. It is a highly successful treatment that can save your natural tooth and alleviate pain caused by dental infections.
Comprehensive Assessment and Diagnosis
Our Root Canal Treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment and diagnosis of the affected tooth. Our experienced dentists will carefully examine your tooth and take dental X-rays to evaluate the extent of the infection and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
Local Anesthesia and Comfort
To ensure your comfort throughout the procedure, our dental team will administer local anesthesia to numb the affected area. We understand that dental anxiety is common, and we take every measure to ensure you feel relaxed and at ease during the treatment.
Removal of Infected Tissue
The next step in Root Canal Treatment involves accessing the tooth’s pulp chamber and removing the infected or inflamed tissue. Our dentists use specialized tools to carefully clean the root canals, ensuring that all bacteria and debris are thoroughly eliminated.
Root Canal Filling and Sealing
Once the canals are clean, our dental professionals will fill them with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha. This material helps to seal the canals and prevent reinfection. In some cases, a temporary filling may be placed to protect the tooth until a permanent restoration can be placed.
Restoration of the Tooth
After the root canal procedure, it is essential to restore the tooth’s strength and function. Our dental team will discuss the most suitable restoration options with you, which may include a dental crown or filling. The restoration will not only protect the tooth but also restore its appearance, allowing you to confidently smile and chew.
Post-Treatment Care and Follow-up
Following your Root Canal Treatment, our dental professionals will provide you with detailed instructions on post-treatment care. It is important to maintain good oral hygiene and attend regular check-ups to ensure the success and longevity of the root canal treatment.
