Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment (RCT) is a procedure to remove infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth. The canals are cleaned, shaped, and filled with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection. RCT relieves pain, stops infection, and preserves the natural tooth. The dentist may use digital imaging and specialized tools for accurate treatment. After the procedure, the tooth is restored with a filling or crown to ensure durability. RCT is an effective alternative to tooth extraction for saving damaged teeth. Patients may experience mild discomfort, which is managed with medications. Follow-up care ensures successful healing and function. Root canal treatment improves oral health and maintains natural teeth.
