What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection and damage in the pulp of a tooth. The pulp is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected, it can cause severe pain and lead to further dental problems if left untreated.
During a root canal treatment, the dentist removes the infected or damaged pulp, cleans and disinfects the inside of the tooth, and then fills and seals the space. This helps to prevent further infection and saves the natural tooth from extraction. Root canal treatment is typically performed by an endodontist, a dentist who specializes in treating the interior of the tooth. It is a common and effective procedure that can help to relieve pain and save a tooth from extraction.
When do you need RCT?
When the bacterial infection progresses towards the tooth pulp infecting it to the extent where the damage cannot be treated with dental fillings, that when you need the root canal treatment. The infection could be from a cracked tooth, gum disease, or cavities. However, sometimes the root canal treatment is also required in cases where the enamel and dentin have chipped off exposing the pulp.
Why we are different?
We are special in performing root canal treatments because we utilize advanced technology to ensure the highest level of precision, efficiency, and patient comfort. Our use of cutting-edge equipment and techniques allows us to accurately diagnose and treat the root canal system, leading to successful outcomes and improved patient experiences.
Advanced technology, such as digital imaging, rotary instruments, and apex locators, enables us to thoroughly assess the tooth internal structure, remove infected or damaged tissue with precision, and effectively clean and shape the root canal system. This results in a more thorough and efficient treatment process, reducing the likelihood of complications and ensuring long-term success.
Furthermore, the use of technology in root canal treatment often leads to reduced treatment times, less discomfort during the procedure, and faster recovery for patients. By staying at the forefront of technological advancements in dentistry, we can provide our patients with the highest standard of care and optimal results when performing root canal treatments.
Laser RCT?
We use laser technology for root canal treatment which can offer numerous benefits to your patients. The precision and efficiency of laser treatment can lead to reduced discomfort and faster recovery times, which can greatly enhance the patient experience.
