What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed pulp tissue from inside the tooth, disinfects the root canals, and seals them to prevent reinfection. It is designed to save your natural tooth—relieving pain while restoring function—so you can chew comfortably and maintain a healthy smile without extraction.

Why Choose Root Canal Treatment?

Pain Relief & Infection Control

Removes the source of toothache caused by deep decay or infection. Helps prevent infection from spreading to surrounding tissues.

Save Your Natural Tooth

Preserves your natural tooth structure instead of removing the tooth. Maintains natural bite and chewing efficiency.

Safe, Precise & Comfortable

Modern techniques and careful anesthesia help keep treatment comfortable. Precise cleaning and sealing reduce the risk of reinfection.

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is one of the most effective ways to treat tooth infection while keeping your natural tooth. By removing bacteria and sealing the canals, it helps eliminate pain, protect the surrounding bone and gums, and restore comfort in daily eating and speaking. In many cases, a crown is recommended afterward to strengthen the tooth for long-term durability.

Who Is This Treatment For?

Persistent Toothache

Pain when chewing or spontaneous pain.

Deep Decay or Large Filling

When the nerve is affected by bacteria.

Tooth Discoloration

A darkening tooth may indicate nerve damage.

Sensitivity to Hot/Cold

Lingering sensitivity that doesn’t go away quickly.

Swelling / Gum Pimples

Possible signs of abscess or infection.

Trauma to a Tooth

Cracks or impact that injures the pulp.

The procedure is typically comfortable with local anesthesia. You may feel mild soreness afterward, which usually improves quickly.

Many cases are completed in 1–2 visits, depending on infection severity and tooth complexity.

Often yes—especially for back teeth—because the tooth can become weaker and needs protection for long-term durability.

Infection may worsen, causing swelling, abscess formation, and potential tooth loss. Early treatment is usually simpler and more predictable.

With proper restoration and good hygiene, a treated tooth can last for many years—often comparable to natural teeth.

Reinfection is possible if bacteria re-enter the tooth (e.g., leakage, cracks, missed canals). Proper sealing, restoration, and follow-ups reduce the risk.
