Root Canal Treatment

Relieve Pain. Save Your Tooth. Smile Again.

Root canal treatment relieves pain and saves your natural tooth. At Sweet Smile Dental Clinic, we use advanced technology and gentle techniques to make the procedure comfortable and effective.

This procedure helps clean infected pulp and seal your tooth, allowing it to function naturally without extraction.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure that removes infected pulp from inside your tooth. This pulp chamber contains nerves and blood vessels. When infected, it can cause pain, swelling, and abscesses. The treatment eliminates the infection and saves your tooth.

Why Do You Need a Root Canal?

  • Severe toothache while chewing or applying pressure
  • Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Tooth discoloration
  • Swollen or tender gums
  • Pain due to deep decay or trauma

Root Canal Treatment Procedure

The treatment is typically done in 1-2 visits and involves:

  • Local anesthesia to numb the area
  • Cleaning and removing infected pulp tissue
  • Disinfection of the inner canal
  • Filling and sealing with biocompatible material
  • Placement of crown for long-term protection

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

  • Relieves pain and swelling
  • Saves your natural tooth
  • Restores chewing function
  • Prevents spread of infection
  • Preserves your smile

Root Canal vs Extraction

Root canal treatment is a more conservative approach that saves your natural tooth. Extraction, on the other hand, leads to tooth loss and requires replacement options like implants or bridges. Root canal is less invasive and cost-effective in the long run.

Requirements for a Successful Root Canal

  • Prompt treatment before the infection spreads
  • Good oral hygiene practices
  • Proper sealing and placement of crown
  • Regular dental checkups post-treatment
