Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is treatment of the “Root Canals “ of the tooth in which the decay/caries/cavity has reached the deepest layer of the tooth called “Pulp”. Root Canal is the area where Pulp is located in the Tooth.
Why Do You Need a Root Canal Treatment ?
Root Canal Treatment is required in the following scenarios :
- Deep Cavities.
- Tooth Injury.
- Dead teeth due to Improper Braces treatment.
- Gum problems extending the infection to Root Canals.
- Bite Irregularities leading to damage to the Pulp.
Why Microscopic Root Canal Treatment ?.
- What we can see, we can treat”. You must have got root canals done but many times you must have got the same tooth removed as R.C failed. There are many causes of failure. One of them is inadequate visualization of root canals or missed canals.
- Microscopic Root Canal Treatment is the Root Canal treatment done under the Dental Microscope. It has multiple advantages and significantly increases the success of the Root Canal Treatment.
Dental Microscope magnifies the tooth up to 25 times so that everything is very clear and hence, we can visualize it and treat it completely leading to successful Root Canal Treatments.

FAQ's
It is not painful, since the major portion of the treatment is done under local anaesthesia and medicines (painkillers) take care of the minor pain after the procedure. Sometimes even the painkillers are not required.
Root canal treatment can be completed in 1 or 2 appointments but if the infection is very severe it might require 2-3 appointments more. Patients’ cooperation is a must for early completion of the root canal treatment.
Contrary to popular belief, root canal treatment cleans up the tooth. It is not the treatment that weakens the tooth, but the infection inside the tooth which has already weakened it.
Most of the times when a patient turns up for RCT, a major portion of the tooth has been eaten up. The idea behind capping is to reinforce the tooth so that after RCT you can chew with your tooth normally without any fear of breakage of the tooth. But if timely treatment is done and a major portion of the tooth structure is left, then we can go ahead with RCT and a normal filling of any type.
It is always better to save the natural tooth because no artificial replacement can be as satisfactory as the natural tooth.

Like all medical fields in dentistry also technological advancement ensures greater treatment success. We have added these newest technologies to canals.

Antibiotics and painkillers cannot treat the source of infection. They can only limit the infection and reduce pain for some time. The source of infection is the infected tooth which needs to be cleaned up.
Kindly understand -RCT is done when the infection or cavity or decay in the tooth has already reached into the deeper softer part of the tooth called as pulp-which mainly comprises blood vessels and nerves.
A filling is done when the decay has not reached into the pulp.
So both these procedures are not interchangeable.There are clear cut guidelines when each needs to done and whatever is indicated should be done for your own benefit.
