Root Canal Treatment
Absolute Smile Multi-Speciality Dental Clinic
Save Your Tooth, End Your Pain
Root canal treatment has a scary reputation, but it’s actually a pain-relieving procedure! When the inner pulp of your tooth becomes infected or inflamed, a root canal removes the infection and saves your natural tooth. Modern techniques make it comfortable and surprisingly quick.
COMPLETE DENTAL SOLUTIONS
The Process
Diagnosis
We take X-rays to assess the infection and plan treatment.
Anesthesia
The area is numbed so you’re comfortable throughout.
Pulp Removal
We create a small opening and remove infected tissue from inside the tooth.
Cleaning & Shaping
The root canals are cleaned, disinfected, and shaped.
Filling & Sealing
We fill the space with a biocompatible material and seal the tooth.
Who Needs Root Canal Treatment?
Anyone with a badly infected or inflamed tooth pulp, often caused by deep decay, repeated dental work, cracks, or trauma. Symptoms include severe toothache, prolonged sensitivity to hot/cold, swelling, or a pimple-like bump on the gums.
Common FAQ’S
Q: Are root canals painful?
A: No! The infection causes pain – the root canal relieves it. With anesthesia, most people feel no pain during treatment.
Q: How long does a root canal take?
A: Usually 1-2 hours per visit. Simple cases may be completed in one appointment; complex cases might need two.
Q: What happens if I don't get a root canal?
A: The infection can spread, causing abscesses, bone loss, and potentially tooth loss. It won’t heal on its own.
Q: How long will the treated tooth last?
A: With proper care and a crown, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime.
