Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation within the pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth). It involves removing the infected or damaged pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and then filling and sealing them to prevent future infection. This treatment helps save the natural tooth and eliminates the need for extraction. Root canal therapy is commonly performed when a tooth is severely decayed, cracked, or has experienced trauma. With modern techniques and anesthesia, the procedure is generally painless and highly effective in restoring function and comfort.
