Save your decayed or infected teeth by Root Canal Treatment

What is a Root Canal?
A Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure used to treat infection within the root canal system of a tooth. This system consists of the pulp chamber, the main canal inside the tooth, and other smaller canals that extend towards the roots. The procedure involves the removal of the damaged or infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the canal, and then filling and sealing it to prevent further infection.

Why is a Root Canal Necessary?
The pulp, composed of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue, can become infected due to several reasons:

Deep Decay: Extensive cavities reaching the pulp.
Repeated Dental Procedures: Multiple treatments on a single tooth.
Large Fillings: Fillings that are too large and close to the pulp.
Cracks or Chips: Physical damage to the tooth.
Facial Trauma: Injuries that affect the tooth’s structure and health.
If left untreated, the infection can cause severe pain, lead to the formation of abscesses, and even result in the loss of the tooth.
