Root Canal Treatment (RCT) – Save Your Natural Tooth

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a highly effective procedure used to treat infected or damaged teeth while preserving your natural tooth. It relieves pain, eliminates infection, and restores the tooth’s function and appearance.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe pain and swelling. RCT involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing the tooth to prevent further infection.

Signs You May Need RCT

Severe toothache or pain while chewing
Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
Swelling or tenderness in the gums
Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
Pimple-like swelling (abscess) on the gums

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

Pain Relief: Eliminates the source of infection and discomfort
Tooth Preservation: Saves your natural tooth and avoids extraction
Improved Function: Restores normal biting and chewing ability
Aesthetic Restoration: The tooth is usually restored with a crown for a natural look
Prevents Spread of Infection: Protects surrounding teeth and tissues

The RCT Procedure

Examination & Diagnosis: Clinical evaluation and X-rays to assess the infection
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is given for a painless procedure
Cleaning the Canal: Infected pulp is removed and canals are cleaned and shaped
Filling & Sealing: The canals are filled with a biocompatible material
Final Restoration: A crown is placed to strengthen and protect the tooth

Is RCT Painful?

Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless and similar to getting a regular filling. Advanced techniques and anesthesia ensure a comfortable experience.
