What is Root Canal Treatment?

Pulp, found at the centre of your tooth, is made of blood vessels that help build the surrounding tooth structure. If this pulp becomes infected, it can lead to deep decay, cracks, chips and trauma to the tooth. Root canal treatment aims to remove the infected pulp and seal the tooth to avoid extraction.

Step By Step Procedure

Our dentists strictly adhere to a systematic procedure when performing root canal treatment. During the procedure, we execute the following steps:

Anaesthesia is injected to numb the infected area where the procedure will be done.
A small hole is made at the top crown to gain access into the tooth.
Tooth pulp is removed and the interior of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned.
Once cleaned, the tooth is prepared for the crown.
The crown is placed over the tooth and is completely sealed.
Most patients report that having a root canal treatment today is as easy and painless as getting a filling.
