Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

Painless • Safe • Tooth-Saving — modern endodontics for a healthier smile.

What is Root Canal Treatment (RCT)?

Root Canal Treatment saves a tooth that is infected or causing severe pain by cleaning, disinfecting, and sealing the nerve canals instead of removing the tooth — restoring function and eliminating pain.

Signs You May Need an RCT

Severe Tooth Pain

Pain while chewing, biting or at rest can indicate nerve infection.

Swelling or Infection

Pus, gum swelling, or facial swelling are signs of a serious infection.

Sensitivity to Hot/Cold

Long-lasting sensitivity often indicates damaged pulp (nerve).

Broken or Deeply Decayed Tooth

Fractures or deep decay that expose the nerve usually require RCT.

How RCT Works

Step 1 — Diagnosis & X-ray

We take X-rays to locate infection and plan treatment.

Step 2 — Local Anesthesia

Advanced numbing techniques ensure a comfortable procedure.

Step 3 — Cleaning the Canals

Infected material is removed and canals are shaped with rotary instruments.

Step 4 — Sealing the Root

Canals are filled with biocompatible material and sealed.

Step 5 — Final Restoration

A crown is placed to restore strength and protect the tooth.
