Root canal treatment falls in the category of endodontic treatment. At Clinic Viva, the treatment comes into the application when the tooth’s central portion also called the pulp that houses nerves, blood vessels as well as connective living tissues suffers an impact because of swelling or infection.
Root canal Treatment- A safety procedure
If your tooth is infected to a greater extent or has suffered an injury, our dental specialist will suggest root canal treatment. This procedure will hamper the tooth from extraction. Our endodontist or the oral specialist will accomplish root canal treatment in Pitampura after diagnosis during the first meeting.
General causes
The general reasons for tooth harm or infection are the plaque pile up leading to cavities. Apart from that, you may have a broken or cracked tooth due to injury or trauma.
Some other reasons for tooth harm are:
Gum ailment
Repetition of the dental procedure for one particular tooth
The above-mentioned tooth damage causes pulp swelling as well as infection. This will also cause terrible toothache. Although the pain subsides with the death of the pulp but pain does come back with the multiplication of the infection. RCT may become mandatory in such a situation at Clinic Viva in Pitampura.
RCT Procedure
RCT is a one-sitting treatment but it may extend to two or three visits based on the complexity of the tooth condition. We assure painful root canal treatment in Pitampura with a high success rate. The general single-sitting duration is between 30 to 90 minutes. The discomfort level is less or no discomfort. Some of the steps for this procedure are:
Local anesthesia
The endodontist will drill the opening through the biting surface or the crown to reach the chamber containing pulp. In the case of the front tooth, drilling is performed from behind.
By application of the special files, we extract the infected, dead, or diseased pulp from the canals. Because of the numbness, there is zero pain.
Disinfection of the canals with the help of disinfectant
Canal shaping with fine instruments, filling with gutta-percha, and sealing.
Irrigation method implemented for debris cleaning from canals
Temporary cover
Final cementing of the crown
Side impacts
Some of the side impacts of RCT are:
Very little pain
A crack at the tooth root may go unnoticed by the orthodontist.
Loose crown
Materials with the defect may cause re-infection

High blood pressure
If you consume the blood thinners
Diabetes
Autoimmune ailments
