Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

What is Root Canal Treatment (RCT)?
Root Canal Treatment, commonly known as RCT, is a dental procedure that treats infection or inflammation inside the tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels). This treatment saves the natural tooth by removing infected tissue, cleaning the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection.

Who Needs Root Canal Treatment?

  • Patients experiencing severe tooth pain or sensitivity due to deep decay or injury
  • Teeth with infected or abscessed pulp causing swelling or discomfort
  • Individuals with cracked or fractured teeth exposing the pulp to bacteria
  • Those seeking to save a damaged tooth rather than opting for extraction

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment:

  • Pain Relief: Eliminates toothache caused by infection or inflammation.
  • Preserves Natural Teeth: Saves your tooth from extraction, maintaining natural bite and smile.
  • Prevents Spread of Infection: Stops infection from spreading to surrounding tissues and bone.
  • Restores Function: Allows you to chew and bite normally with a treated tooth.
  • Improves Oral Health: Maintains overall dental structure and prevents complications.

The Procedure at Shivaya Dental Clinic:

  • Detailed examination and digital imaging by Dr. Chandan Sinha to assess tooth condition

Aftercare & Maintenance:

  • Avoid chewing hard foods on the treated tooth until fully restored

  • Regular dental check-ups to ensure long-term success
