A root canal treatment is necessary when a tooth's pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, cracks, or repeated dental procedures. If left untreated, it can cause severe pain, swelling, and even abscess formation. Symptoms that indicate the need for a root canal include persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, swollen gums, and darkening of the tooth. The procedure usually takes one to two sessions, each lasting about 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the severity of the infection. At Krishna Dental & Cosmetic Clinic, painless root canal treatment is performed using advanced techniques and anesthesia, ensuring a comfortable experience. The benefits include relief from pain, saving the natural tooth, preventing further infection, and restoring normal chewing function. For instance, a patient with intense tooth pain visited Krishna Dental & Cosmetic Clinic and, after a painless root canal, was able to eat and smile comfortably again.
