Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a highly effective procedure that saves a severely decayed or infected tooth, eliminating pain while preserving your natural smile. When the soft tissue inside the tooth, known as the pulp, becomes infected due to deep cavities, cracks, or trauma, timely treatment can prevent tooth loss and further complications. At Bharat Dental Clinic, root canal treatment is performed using advanced techniques to ensure a comfortable and precise treatment experience.
About Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment involves removing the infected or damaged pulp, thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing the tooth to prevent reinfection. In most cases, the treated tooth is restored with a dental crown to regain its strength and function. Modern root canal procedures are safe, minimally invasive, and help retain your natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction.
