Root canal treatment (RCT) is a highly effective dental procedure aimed at saving a severely decayed or infected tooth, preventing the need for extraction. At Sthira, Dr. Bhargav Kuchu and his team perform root canal procedures with precision, ensuring minimal discomfort and long-lasting results.
A root canal becomes necessary when the innermost layer of the tooth, known as the pulp, becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or injury. Left untreated, this infection can lead to severe pain, abscess formation, and even bone loss around the tooth.
The Procedure
During an RCT, the infected pulp tissue is carefully removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and shaped. The canal is then filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection. Finally, a dental crown or filling is placed to restore the tooth’s strength, function, and natural appearance.
