Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat and save an infected tooth. The procedure involves removing the damaged nerve, cleaning and disinfecting the tooth and then filling and sealing the
root canal. The common causes resulting in the need for root canal treatment are cracked tooth, deep cavity, or trauma to the tooth.
Root canal is a one or two sitting job. In the first sitting we give local painless anesthesia system and hence the root canal treatment is totally painless. In fact, it’s probably more painful living
with a
decayed tooth.
We clean the Root canal with the help of root canal files and some medicines. We take an x-ray to confirm whether the canals are cleaned properly. Apex Locator which is the latest type of instrument
gives the
depth of canal. It is major breakthrough in Root canal treatment. We take computerized xrays called RVG to confirm whether the infection is removed these have .001 percent of the exposure as normal x-rays.
Then the canals are filled with artificial material called as a Gutta Percha. After the Root canal is filled we do a filling on the tooth, it can be of composite or miracle mix.
When Should You Consider A Root Canal Treatment?
The pulp is made up of soft tissue that includes nerves and blood vessels. The pulp will begin to die if it’s infected by bacteria and further leads to infection causing pain and tenderness. This condition
requires root canal treatment to save your tooth. The major symptoms of a pulp infection are;
Pain when eating or drinking hot or cold food and drink
Swelling of gum near the affected tooth
A loose tooth
Facial swelling

Frequently Asked Questions
The root canal treatment might be the solution if the soft pulp inside the root of a tooth is infected. Common symptoms of this problem are tooth pain, gum & tooth sensitivity
or tooth discoloration. Initially, the dentist may need to take an X-Ray to determine if a root canal is necessary.
The root of the tooth is examined and the infected tissue is removed from the inside of the tooth. The inside of the tooth will be completely cleaned and filled to prevent
re-contamination.
As with any other dental procedure, a local anaesthetic will be applied to the area around the tooth to numb the nerves and prevent pain during the procedure.
If a tooth infection is left untreated, it can lead to serious, sometimes dangerous infections. This is why oral hygiene is so important and if you are having any symptoms of
an infected tooth/abscess you should set up a dental exam immediately.
You could have the infected tooth extracted, but that is not the best option. A gap between teeth due to a missing tooth can cause other teeth to shift out of proper alignment.
You will experience loss of jaw bone where the tooth was as it naturally resorbs. It can also be damaging to your appearance.
