At Maitreyi Dental, root canal therapy is used to treat severe tooth infections or damage by removing the infected pulp inside the tooth. This condition can arise from deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures on the same tooth. The process involves cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, followed by filling and sealing them. After the procedure, follow-up visits are necessary to place a permanent crown, and the entire treatment typically takes one to two hours. The benefits of this therapy include pain relief, preservation of the natural tooth, and preventing the infection from spreading further. By effectively restoring tooth function and preventing extraction, root canal therapy promotes a healthier, more resilient smile. Ongoing care and regular dental check-ups are essential for maintaining long-term oral health and the success of the treatment.
