What is a root canal?

When the inner part of your tooth which is known as pulp containing blood vessels, nerves and live connecting tissues, gets infected, a root canal procedure is performed to save your badly infected tooth instead of removing it completely. The dentist that specialises in performing root canal therapy is known as an Endodontist or root canal specialist.

What happens in root canal treatment?

• Step1: To start with the process, your dentist will give local anaesthesia to numb the tissues around your infected tooth.
• Step2: He or she will create an opening from your tooth crown or from the biting surface of your tooth to get access to the pulp chamber.
• Step3: With the help of specailies tools, the dentist will clean your pulp chamber and remove the damaged and dead pulp from the canals and disinfect the canals with the help of disinfectants.
• Step4: The canals are then shaped using delicate devices to fill them with gutta-percha root canal fillings and seal them.
• Step5: Above the gutta-percha, a temporary cover material that acts as a seal is put. This covering material is left in place until the treated tooth is fitted with a crown or cap that looks like a natural tooth.
• Step6: To provide the crown extra support, a post is sometimes put into the canal close to the gutta-percha. The crown is then sealed in place to ensure that it does not move.
