Root canal treatment, without the dread.

The infected pulp is removed, canals are cleaned and disinfected, then sealed and restored with a filling or crown.

A root canal is required when the inner pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed due to decay, cracks, or repeated dental procedures.
Common signs include:
• Severe tooth pain while chewing
• Sensitivity to hot or cold
• Tooth discoloration
• Swelling or tenderness in gums
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to infection spreading and eventual tooth loss.

Root canal treatment removes infected pulp, cleans the inner canals, and seals the tooth to prevent reinfection. The tooth is then restored with a filling or crown. The procedure involves:
• Removing infected pulp
• Cleaning and disinfecting canals
• Filling with biocompatible material
• Sealing and restoring the tooth

Most root canal treatments take 1–3 visits, depending on the complexity of the case. In many cases, single-visit root canal treatment is also possible.

Delaying treatment can lead to:
• Increased pain
• Spread of infection
• Damage to surrounding teeth
• Tooth loss
In advanced cases, the infection can spread beyond the tooth and affect overall health.

Yes, local anesthesia is used to ensure a painless and comfortable procedure.

Root canal treatment costs vary depending on the tooth position and complexity. Single-visit RCT starts from ₹4,000. A detailed consultation will provide an accurate estimate.

Yes, but it is advisable to avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it is fully restored.

Root canal retreatment may be needed when a previously treated tooth develops persistent or recurring infection. Possible reasons include missed canals, reinfection, new decay, or a damaged restoration. The dentist will examine the tooth and take appropriate imaging before recommending treatment.

Microscope-assisted RCT uses magnification and focused lighting to help the dentist examine the inside of a tooth more closely. It may be useful in complex root canal cases, including locating difficult or missed canals and treating selected retreatment cases.
