Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment (RCT), also known as endodontic treatment, is a dental procedure performed when tooth decay progresses to the pulp, the innermost layer of the tooth, resulting in inflammation. This treatment is essential for preserving the damaged tooth and preventing extraction. A root canal specialist, or endodontist, carries out this procedure, which involves:

  • Removal of inflamed or infected Tooth Material.
  • Cleaning and disinfection.
  • Fill and seal with an inert material.
  • Restoration and crown/cap.

Why is Root Canal Treatment Necessary?

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is performed on a damaged or infected tooth, and it is essential for several reasons:

  • RCT is crucial for removing infected pulp and relieving associated pain.
  • If the infection in the pulp is not treated promptly, it can lead to a dental abscess, which is a pus-filled pocket that can cause swelling, severe pain, and damage to surrounding bone. Root canal therapy helps eliminate the infection and prevent the spread of the abscess.
  • RCT becomes necessary when tooth decay advances to the pulp. The decayed part of the tooth is removed, and the canal is cleaned and sealed to prevent further infection.
  • A persistent and severe toothache, particularly when chewing or applying pressure, can indicate an issue with the pulp. RCT is often recommended to alleviate pain and preserve the tooth.

Symptoms for which Root Canal Treatment is Required

  • Ongoing and severe pain, particularly when chewing or putting pressure on the tooth.
  • Heightened sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures that persists even after the source of temperature is removed.
  • Swelling and tenderness in the gums surrounding the affected tooth.
  • Discoloration or darkening of the tooth, which may suggest damage to the pulp within.
  • Discomfort or pain when chewing, biting, or applying pressure on the tooth.
  • Pain that radiates from one area of the mouth to another, potentially indicating nerve involvement.
