Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment (known as “Endodontic Treatment”) involves removing the damaged or dead nerve tissues and pus in the root canals of teeth that have become infected. The infected or dead tissue is cleaned away and the residual canal space is also cleaned and disinfected, and the root canal is prepared so that it can be sealed with a filling. The tooth can then be restored and can remain in function for many years provided there is sufficient sound tooth structure to support a new filling or crown.

Stage 3: Once you’re ready, the decayed portion of the tooth is carefully removed using a bur, gradually accessing into the pulp chamber. This process is crucial for successful RCT teeth treatment, targeting the core of the infection while preserving your natural tooth structure.

Stage 4: Using specialized tools, the dentist accurately measures the canal length to ensure effective cleaning. The canals are then thoroughly disinfected to eliminate bacteria, creating a healthy and stable foundation for the next stages of your treatment.

Stage 5: The next step is to fill the root canal once it has been completely cleansed and dried. The root canals are generally filled with a biocompatible compound known as gutta-percha, a rubber-like material obtained from trees.

Stage 6: Once the root canal has been filled, a temporary or permanent filling is used to seal the access opening.

Stage 7: In the final stage, the temporary filling is removed and the tooth may be restored by a crown or permanent filling to reinforce the tooth structure and improve its appearance.
