What root canal treatment involves

When decay reaches the nerve inside a tooth, root canal treatment removes the infected pulp, disinfects the canals and seals them — so the tooth stays in your mouth instead of being pulled out. A crown normally goes on afterwards to protect it.

How the treatment goes

  1. X-ray and diagnosisWe confirm the infection has reached the nerve.
  2. Numbing and cleaningThe tooth is numbed and the infected pulp removed.
  3. Shaping and sealingCanals are disinfected, shaped and filled to prevent reinfection.
  4. CrownA cap is fitted so the treated tooth can chew normally again.

Aftercare

After your root canal treatment

  • Avoid chewing hard food on that tooth until the crown is fitted.
  • Mild tenderness for two to three days is normal.
  • Complete the crown — an uncrowned root-treated tooth can crack.
  • Keep the area clean; brush and floss normally.

Questions

Root Canal Treatment — your questions answered

Is root canal treatment painful?
The treatment itself is not painful — the tooth is fully numbed and the procedure actually relieves the pain the infection was causing. Most patients say the toothache before the appointment was far worse than the treatment.
How much does a root canal cost in Perambalur?
Cost depends on the tooth — front teeth have one canal and molars have three or four, so molars take longer and cost more. A crown afterwards is a separate cost. We give you the full figure in writing before starting. Call +91 94879 39179 for a current quote.
Why not just remove the tooth?
Your own tooth is always better than a replacement. Extraction costs less on the day, but the gap then needs an implant or bridge that comes to several times more than the root canal would have.
How many visits does it take?
Most root canals are completed in one or two sittings. A badly infected tooth may need an extra visit for medication before sealing.
