Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat a severely infected tooth and prevent extraction. Deep tooth decay causes the innermost layer or pulp, of the tooth damage badly. The RCT procedure repairs the damaged tooth.
A person may need painless root canal treatment when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected due to decay or inflammation. Other conditions needing a root canal include gum infection, cracked teeth, root infection, repeated dental treatments on the same tooth, and many more. An expert Endodontist at ARCUS Dental Clinic will suggest the need for root canal filling after a thorough examination.

A small opening is made on the crown to access the pulp and root canal.
Step 4: Pulp removal
Specialised instruments are used to carefully remove the infected area. lt is cleaned and disinfected to eliminate bacteria.
