Root canal treatment (also called endodontic therapy) is a dental procedure designed to save a severely decayed or infected tooth. During this treatment, a dentist or endodontist removes the inflamed or infected pulp from inside the tooth, thoroughly cleans and disinfects the root canals, then fills and seals them to prevent reinfection.
This treatment typically involves multiple stages:
Dental X-ray – To evaluate the extent of damage and root canal structure
Local anesthesia – Numbs the tooth and surrounding gum for a painless procedure
Access hole creation – A small opening is made to reach the infected pulp
Pulp removal & canal cleaning – Infected tissue and bacteria are completely removed
Canal shaping & disinfection – The canals are widened and sterilized
Filling & sealing – Canals are filled with gutta-percha (a biocompatible rubber material)
Final restoration – Usually, a crown or filling is placed to protect and strengthen the tooth
✔ Saves your natural tooth (avoiding extraction)
✔ Stops infection spread to jawbone and nearby teeth
✔ Relieves severe toothache caused by infection
✔ Restores normal chewing & speaking function
With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a root canal-treated tooth can last many years—even a lifetime!
