What is
Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (also called endodontic treatment) is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage in the inner pulp of a tooth, helping to save the natural tooth rather than removing it.
When the pulp, the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or inflamed, it can cause pain and sensitivity. During treatment, the infected pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed.
The tooth is then restored, usually with a filling or crown, to protect it and restore normal function. The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia and is designed to relieve pain caused by infection.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate
for Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment may be suitable for individuals with infection or damage affecting the inner pulp of a tooth.
Persistent or throbbing tooth pain
Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
A deep cavity or extensive tooth decay
A cracked or chipped tooth
A darkened or abscessed tooth
A consultation with our dental specialists can help determine whether root canal treatment is appropriate for your condition.

Treatment Duration

Usually takes around 30-90 minutes per session
May require one or two visits
Duration varies based on the tooth and the severity of the infection
Includes an examination before treatment
Root canal treatment is generally performed as an outpatient procedure, but proper rest and care post-treatment are recommended, as the patient may feel dizzy and experience discomfort due to anesthesia.
Recovery & Aftercare
Downtime for root canal treatment varies from person to person, though mild soreness for a few days is normal as the area heals.
For a smooth recovery, we recommend:
Avoid chewing on the treated side until it is fully restored
Take recommended pain relief if needed
Maintaining good oral hygiene
Eating soft foods for the first few days
Attending any follow-up appointment for your crown or restoration
