What is a Root canal treatment (RCT)?
A root canal, also known as Root Canal Treatment (RCT), is a dental procedure designed to save and restore a severely damaged or infected tooth. The process involves removing the damaged nerve and pulp, thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the interior of the tooth, and then sealing it to prevent further infection. To ensure durability and protection, the treated tooth is typically restored with a crown, which strengthens it and restores its functionality. Root canal treatment is an effective solution for preserving your natural tooth and maintaining overall oral health.
Benefits of a Root Canal Treatment
Restores Your Smile
A root canal, paired with a custom-fitted crown, restores the appearance and function of your tooth, giving you a confident and natural-looking smile.
Minimally Invasive and Comfortable
Modern root canal techniques make the procedure virtually painless, with recovery often being smoother and less discomforting than a tooth extraction.
Promotes Oral and Overall Health
By eliminating infection and preserving the natural tooth, root canals reduce the risk of complications linked to poor dental health, such as heart disease and systemic infections.
