What is root canal treatment?( RCT)

Root canal therapy refers to the process by which a dentist treats the inner aspects of a tooth, specifically that area inside a tooth that is occupied by its "pulp tissue

Why is the procedure required?

Root canal treatment saves teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted. The most common cause of pulp infection is a cracked tooth or a deep cavity. Both of these problems can let bacteria enter the pulp and causes an infection inside the tooth.

 
 
 
 

How is the procedure performed?

During the treatment, the infected pulp is removed , the pulp chamber and root canals are cleaned and sealed. The steps involved are:

An opening is made in the crown of the tooth and The pulp chamber and root canals are cleaned..
A temporary filling is placed in the crown opening to protect the tooth between dental visits.
In the final step, the temporary filling is removed and a permanent filling is placed over the tooth.
The conventional mode of RCT requires several visits; however dentists who have switched over to rotary instruments can perform same treatment in single visit.
