Root Canals
A root canal is a crucial procedure designed to save a tooth that is severely damaged or infected. At Sudrania Dental Clinic, we provide expert root canal therapy to relieve pain, restore tooth function, and preserve your natural smile.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from the inside of a tooth, then cleaning and sealing the tooth’s interior. This procedure is typically performed when the tooth’s pulp (the innermost part containing nerves and blood vessels) becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or injury.
Benefits of Root Canal Therapy:
- Pain Relief: The procedure alleviates the severe pain caused by pulp infection, providing relief and comfort.
- Tooth Preservation: By treating the infection and saving the tooth, you avoid the need for extraction and maintain your natural bite and smile.
- Functionality: After treatment, the tooth can function normally, allowing you to chew and speak with ease.
- Aesthetic Preservation: Root canal therapy helps retain your tooth’s natural appearance, avoiding gaps or changes in your smile.
Our Process:
- Diagnosis and Examination: We start with a thorough examination, including X-rays, to assess the extent of the infection or damage and determine if a root canal is necessary.
- Treatment Planning: We discuss the procedure with you, explaining what to expect and addressing any concerns you may have.
- Procedure: Under local anesthesia, the affected tooth is accessed through a small opening in the crown. The pulp chamber and root canals are cleaned, disinfected, and shaped. After cleaning, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed.
- Restoration: In most cases, a tooth restored with a root canal will need a crown to protect and strengthen it. We will take impressions and design a custom crown to fit seamlessly and restore the tooth’s function.
- Aftercare: Post-procedure care includes advice on managing any discomfort and maintaining oral hygiene. We schedule follow-up visits to ensure the tooth is healing properly and functioning as intended.
At Sudrania Dental Clinic, our skilled team is dedicated to providing comfortable and effective root canal therapy. Our goal is to save your natural tooth and ensure your long-term oral health, allowing you to enjoy a pain-free and healthy smile.
