Root Canal Treatment
A Root Canal Treatment is a professional dental procedure designed to save a severely decayed or infected tooth. When the soft inner pulp inside the tooth, which contains nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or inflamed, a root canal is necessary to remove the pulp. During the treatment, the infected pulp will be carefully removed, cleaned, and sealed. Ultimately, this procedure relieves pain, restores tooth function to allow you to keep your natural tooth for years, and helps you maintain your natural smile.
Root Canal Treatment is generally quick, effective, and virtually painless.
Professional Root Canal Treatment Processes
(1)Xray & Examination
First, our dentist assesses the tooth to locate infection or damage.
(2)Anaesthesia & Clean
Local anesthesia is given to numb the area completely. Next, our dentist creates a small opening to remove the damaged and infected pulp and tissue, meticulously clean, and disinfect the inner chamber.
(3)Filling & Sealing
After that, the cleaned canal is filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection.
(4)Crown Placement
Finally, the tooth is typically restored with a dental crown for protection and to restore its strength and appearance.
