Root canal treatment becomes essential when the tooth’s pulp—the soft tissue inside the tooth—gets infected or inflamed due to factors like deep decay, cracks, or multiple dental procedures. Ignoring these issues can lead to severe pain, swelling, and the development of abscesses, which can further complicate oral health. Common signs that indicate the need for a root canal include persistent toothache, heightened sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks, swollen or tender gums, and noticeable darkening of the affected tooth. The treatment generally requires one or two sessions, each lasting between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on how advanced the infection is. At Krishna Dental & Cosmetic Clinic, the root canal procedure is carried out with modern, painless techniques and effective anesthesia, ensuring that patients remain comfortable throughout the process. The advantages of undergoing this treatment include complete relief from pain, preservation of the natural tooth, prevention of the infection’s spread, and restoration of normal chewing ability. For example, a patient experiencing intense tooth pain sought treatment at Krishna Dental & Cosmetic Clinic, and after a painless root canal, they regained the ability to eat comfortably and smile confidently once again.
