Root Canal Treatment - Saving Your Natural Tooth

Root Canal Treatment - Saving Your Natural Tooth

Introduction

Hearing the words "root canal" often makes people nervous. Many think it's painful, but the truth is - a root canal treatment (RCT) is actually done to relieve pain and save your natural tooth.

At LokDant, we make root canals simple, painless, and affordable for everyone.

What Is a Root Canal Treatment?

Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called the pulp, which has nerves and blood vessels. If this pulp gets infected due to deep cavities or injury, it causes pain and swelling.

A root canal removes the infected pulp, cleans the tooth, and seals it - so the tooth can stay in your mouth for years.

When Do You Need a Root Canal?

Signs that you may need an RCT include:

• Severe toothache (especially while chewing)
• Sensitivity to hot or cold
• Swelling around the gums
• Darkening of the tooth
• A cavity that has reached the nerve

• Numbing - Local anesthesia makes the procedure painless.
• Cleaning - The infected pulp is removed.
• Filling - The inside of the tooth is sealed with special material.

Usually completed in 1-2 visits depending on the case.
