Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

A root canal treatment is a dental procedure designed to save a severely decayed or infected tooth. Instead of removing the tooth entirely, RCT helps eliminate infection from within and protects the tooth from future damage. It’s a safe, effective, and often pain-free way to restore your natural smile.

What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the roots, and sealing them with a special filling material. This restores the tooth’s structure and function while relieving pain and preventing further spread of infection.

When Do You Need RCT?

You may need a root canal if you experience:

• Persistent toothache or sensitivity to hot and cold

• Swelling or tenderness in the gums

• Darkening or discoloration of the tooth

• Pain when chewing or applying pressure

• An abscess or pus around the gum line

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

• Relieves intense tooth pain and sensitivity

• Prevents infection from spreading to other teeth

• Saves your natural tooth, maintaining your smile and bite

• Restores chewing and speaking comfort

• Offers a long-lasting dental solution with proper care

The Root Canal Procedure

1. Examination and X-ray: The dentist assesses the tooth and surrounding area.

2. Local Anesthesia: The area around the tooth is numbed for comfort.

3. Cleaning and Shaping: The infected pulp is removed, and the space inside the roots is cleaned and shaped.

4. Filling and Sealing: The canal is filled with a biocompatible material and sealed securely.

5. Restoration: A crown or filling is placed to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.

Aftercare and Recovery

After RCT, mild soreness is normal for a few days. Good oral hygiene, avoiding hard foods initially, and regular follow-up visits ensure long-term success. With proper care, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.
