Description:
Save Your Natural Tooth. Relieve Pain. Restore Your Smile.
Root Canal Treatment is a safe and effective procedure used to treat infection inside the tooth and preserve your natural tooth structure. At Horizon Dental Clinic, we perform painless, advanced RCT with modern technology to ensure maximum comfort and long-lasting results.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Inside every tooth, there is a soft tissue called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to decay, trauma, or cracks, it can cause severe pain and swelling.
Root Canal Treatment involves:
Removing the infected pulp
Cleaning and disinfecting the root canals
Filling and sealing the tooth to prevent reinfection
Signs You May Need Root Canal Treatment
Severe tooth pain (especially while chewing)
Sensitivity to hot or cold (lingering pain)
Swelling in gums or face
Darkening (discoloration) of the tooth
Pimple-like swelling (abscess) on gums
Step-by-Step Root Canal Procedure
1. Diagnosis & X-ray
We examine the tooth and take digital X-rays to assess the infection and plan treatment.
2. Local Anesthesia
The area is numbed to ensure a completely pain-free procedure.
3. Cleaning the Infection
The infected pulp is removed, and the root canals are cleaned using advanced rotary instruments.
4. Disinfection & Shaping
The canals are shaped and disinfected to eliminate bacteria.
5. Filling the Canals
The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha).
6. Crown Placement
A dental crown is usually placed to restore strength, function, and prevent fracture.
Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?
No. With modern techniques and anesthesia, RCT is virtually painless — similar to getting a filling. In fact, it helps relieve the pain caused by infection.
How Many Visits Are Needed?
Usually 1 to 2 visits
Complex cases may require additional visits
