What is a Root Canal Treatments?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the centre of a tooth (the pulp). It is essential when the tooth’s nerve becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or cracks.

Type of Root Canal Treatment

  • Single Sitting: Single Sitting RCT is a quick, painless root canal treatment completed in one visit, effectively removing infection, sealing the tooth, and restoring function, ensuring convenience and comfort for patients.
  • Multiple Sitting: Multiple Sitting RCT is a root canal treatment performed in multiple sessions to thoroughly clean infected pulp, eliminate bacteria, and restore tooth health, ensuring long-term durability and pain relief.

Why is a Root Canal Needed?

  • To save the tooth: It prevents the need for tooth extraction.
  • To eliminate pain: It effectively treats severe toothache caused by infection or damage.
  • To restore functionality: A treated tooth can function like a natural one, allowing you to eat and speak normally.
  • To stop the spread of infection: By removing the infected tissue, a root canal prevents the infection from spreading to other teeth or the jawbone.

Symptoms Indicating a Root Canal Might Be Required

  • Persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure
  • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the sensation has been removed
  • Discolouration of the tooth
  • Swollen and tender gums near the affected tooth
  • A pimple-like bump on the gum, signalling infection

Treatment Process

  • Examination & Diagnosis: X-rays are used to assess the condition of the tooth.
  • Pulp Removal: The infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed from the tooth.
  • Cleaning & Sealing: The tooth’s canals are cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection.
