The root canal treatment is done to a highly damaged tooth due to decay or injury saving it from extraction.

Importance of Root Canal Treatment 

There are a lot of methods for replacing teeth after extraction. But nothing can equalize the natural strength, chewing and biting function of a natural tooth.

The Treatment Process

The professional root canal therapy by our skilled dentists include the process of,

• Removal of the badly damaged or highly infected dental pulp (nerve tissue) inside the tooth and disinfected
• Filling the disinfected space with a filling material called gutta percha to prevent bacteria from re-entering the space
• Restoration and fixation of the teeth crown

The root canal therapy is performed by skilled general dentists or an endodontist who is specialized in root canals. Also they give a local anesthetic to the patient to ensure a pain-free treatment.
