Root Canal Treatment

Save Your Natural Tooth, End the Pain

When decay or infection reaches the inner pulp of a tooth, root canal treatment removes the source of pain and saves the tooth from extraction. At Nakshatra Dental & General Clinic, our gentle, precise approach means most patients feel immediate relief.

Relieving Pain, Preserving Your Tooth

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment (RCT) removes infected or inflamed pulp tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and shapes the root canals, then seals them to prevent reinfection. It's one of the most effective ways to eliminate dental pain while keeping your natural tooth in place.

  • Performed comfortably under local anaesthesia
  • Guided by digital X-rays for precise, thorough cleaning
  • Finished with a crown to protect and restore the tooth

FAQ

Common Questions

Is root canal treatment painful?+
The procedure itself is performed under local anaesthesia, so you shouldn't feel pain during treatment. Most patients report feeling relief once the infected pulp is removed.
How many visits does it take?+
Many cases are completed in one visit, though some — especially those with more complex infections — may need two visits before the final crown is placed.
Will I need a crown afterward?+
In most cases, yes. A root-treated tooth becomes more brittle over time, and a crown protects it from fracture while restoring full chewing strength.
What's the alternative to root canal treatment?+
The main alternative is extraction, followed by an implant, bridge or denture to replace the tooth. Root canal treatment is usually the simpler, more conservative option.
How long does a treated tooth last?+
With a properly fitted crown and good oral hygiene, a root-treated tooth can last for many years — often a lifetime — with routine dental check-ups.
Can the infection come back?+
It's uncommon when the canals are thoroughly cleaned and sealed, and the tooth is properly crowned. Regular check-ups help catch any issues early.
