Root Canal Treatment – Save Your Tooth, Preserve Your Smile

Root canal treatment is a highly effective dental procedure designed to repair and save teeth that are severely infected or decayed. When the soft tissue inside your tooth—known as the pulp—becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or injury, a root canal is necessary to prevent further damage and restore oral health.

Why Is Root Canal Treatment Necessary?

If left untreated, an infected tooth can lead to severe pain, swelling, abscess formation, and even tooth loss. The infection can also spread to surrounding tissues, impacting neighboring teeth and causing complications. Root canal treatment stops the infection at its source, preserving your natural tooth and preventing the need for extraction.

The Root Canal Procedure – What to Expect

Root canal treatment is performed by a dentist or endodontist and typically involves several key steps:

  1. Diagnosis & X-ray – Your dentist will assess the affected tooth using dental imaging to determine the extent of infection and plan the treatment.
  2. Removing Infected Pulp & Nerves – Under local anesthesia, a small opening is made in the tooth, allowing the removal of damaged pulp and nerve tissue that is causing pain and infection.
  3. Cleaning & Disinfecting – The inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned and sterilized to eliminate bacteria, ensuring a healthy foundation for restoration.
  4. Filling & Sealing – After cleaning, the hollow space is filled with a biocompatible material and permanently sealed to prevent reinfection.
  5. Final Restoration – Depending on the severity, a dental crown may be placed over the treated tooth to reinforce its structure and restore full functionality.
