Root Canal Treatment

Saving the Tooth,
Removing the Pain
Root canal treatment addresses infection inside the tooth — specifically within the pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels). When bacteria reach the pulp through deep cavities, cracks, or trauma, infection develops causing pain, swelling, and potential abscess.
The procedure removes the infected tissue, cleans and shapes the root canals, and seals the tooth permanently — eliminating pain and saving a tooth that would otherwise need extraction.
Step by Step
Diagnosis & X-Ray
Digital X-rays confirm infection extent. We explain findings clearly before proceeding.
Anesthesia
Local anesthesia ensures you feel nothing. We wait until you confirm complete numbness.
Pulp Removal
Infected tissue is removed using precision rotary instruments — fast and comfortable.
Cleaning & Sealing
Root canals are thoroughly cleaned, shaped, and sealed with biocompatible material.
Crown Placement
A porcelain crown is placed to protect and restore full function to the treated tooth.
