Painless Root Canals
What is Root Canal Treatment?
A root canal is an endodontic procedure in which the diseased or inflamed dental pulp is removed.
Dental pulp is the soft tissue and innermost structure of the tooth that contains blood vessels, connective tissues and nerves. Once the pulp becomes inflamed or infected by a disease, decay or direct trauma to the tooth, most patients will experience severe pain. We remove the infected or dead pulp tissue and clean out the complete root of the tooth to eliminate pain. Then we seal it with an artificial inert material to prevent any re-infection.
Root canal treatment (RCT) is Jan instant pain reliever and the best treatment to retain your natural teeth. This procedure can preserve your decayed tooth which otherwise would have required extraction in earlier days.
If you have been experiencing tooth pain or excess sensitivity in teeth, the first question will come in your mind, “Do I need a root canal treatment?”
Unfortunately, the infected pulp of the tooth will not heal on its own and requires a root canal treatment.
While you may be nervous about getting a root canal, you should be stress-free to hear that owing to technological advances this procedure now-a-days is mostly painless and no more complicated.
