Root Canal Treatment in Ahmedabad 

Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that is severely infected or damaged. The term "root canal" refers to the natural cavity within the center of the tooth, where the tooth's pulp chamber and nerve are located. When this area becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, a cracked tooth, or repeated dental procedures, a root canal is often recommended to alleviate pain and preserve the tooth.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal

Severe Toothache: Persistent and intense pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure.

Prolonged Sensitivity: Increased sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, lasting long after the stimulus is removed.

Swollen Gums: Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth.

Darkening of the Tooth: Discoloration of the tooth, indicating potential damage to the pulp.

The Root Canal Procedure

Assessment: Our experienced dentist will conduct a thorough examination, including X-rays, to diagnose the extent of the infection or damage.

Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.

Access Opening: A small access hole is created in the tooth to reach the infected pulp chamber.

Cleaning and Shaping: The infected or damaged pulp is removed, and the interior of the tooth is cleaned, shaped, and disinfected.

Filling: The root canal is filled with a biocompatible material, and the access hole is sealed.

Restoration: In most cases, a tooth that has undergone a root canal will need a crown to restore its strength and appearance. We offer customized, natural-looking crowns to complete the restoration.

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment

Pain Relief: Alleviates the severe toothache associated with pulp inflammation or infection.

Preservation of Natural Tooth: Saves the natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction.

Restored Functionality: Allows normal biting and chewing without discomfort.

Prevents Spread of Infection: Stops the spread of infection to surrounding tissues and other teeth.
