Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a highly effective dental procedure designed to save a tooth that is severely decayed, infected, or damaged. Instead of removing the tooth, this treatment helps eliminate the infection from the root canal system and preserves the natural structure of the tooth.
Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or a crack or chip in the tooth, it can lead to severe pain, swelling, and even abscess formation if left untreated. A root canal treatment addresses this problem by removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the root canal, and then sealing it with a biocompatible material to prevent future infection.
At Dr. Nathani Dental Clinic, Root Canal Treatment is performed with advanced tools and techniques that ensure precision, comfort, and long-lasting results. We use digital X-rays, rotary instruments, and high-quality materials to provide painless and efficient procedures. In most cases, the treated tooth is restored with a dental crown to strengthen it and restore its functionality.
Benefits of Root Canal Treatment:
Relieves toothache and discomfort
Saves the natural tooth
Restores normal chewing and biting
Prevents the spread of infection
Maintains natural tooth aesthetics
Patients are often concerned about pain during a root canal, but with modern dentistry and local anesthesia, the procedure is nearly painless—similar to getting a dental filling. The recovery is quick, and most patients can return to normal activities the next day.
Ignoring a tooth infection can lead to more serious health issues, including bone loss and systemic infections. That’s why timely root canal therapy is essential for your dental and overall well-being.
If you’re experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling around the gums, or darkening of the tooth, you may need a root canal. Dr. Rakesh Nathani and his team at Dr. Nathani Dental Clinic are here to evaluate your condition and provide expert care to restore your smile.
