Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment at Saarthak Dental Clinic and Aesthetic Care
Root canal treatment is a common dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has become severely decayed, infected, or injured. At Saarthak Dental Clinic, we prioritize your comfort and well-being while delivering effective treatment to restore your oral health.
What is a Root Canal?
The root canal is the space within the tooth that contains the dental pulp—an essential part of the tooth consisting of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When this pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, injury, or cracks, it can lead to severe pain and the risk of abscess formation. Root canal treatment aims to remove the infected pulp, disinfect the root canal system, and seal the tooth to prevent future infection.
The Root Canal Procedure
Diagnosis: Dr. Priyanka S Mujumdar will conduct a thorough examination, often using advanced imaging techniques such as X-rays, to assess the condition of your tooth and determine if a root canal is necessary.
Anesthesia: To ensure your comfort during the procedure, local anesthesia will be administered to numb the affected area.
Treatment: The dentist will carefully create an opening in the tooth to access the pulp chamber. The infected or damaged pulp is then removed, and the root canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected using specialized tools.
Sealing: After the root canals are thoroughly cleaned and dried, they are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha to seal the space and prevent future infection. The tooth is then typically restored with a crown or filling to protect and restore its function.
Follow-Up Care: After the procedure, you’ll receive instructions on how to care for your tooth and maintain oral hygiene. Follow-up appointments may also be recommended to monitor the healing process.
