Root canal therapy

Restoration Dentistry

For patients whose teeth which are decayed by infection or trauma are suggested to have a Root canal therapy. Root canal therapy is also known as an endodontic treatment. This treatment is essential to be carried out in order to save the tooth from further decay. As part of the root canal treatment, the living tissue inside the tooth, the nerves, bacteria and any decay are removed resulting in an empty space which is then filled with medicated materials to restore the tooth’s actual function. This process ensures complete elimination of bacterial from the infected tooth, thereby preserving the natural tooth.

It is advisable to consult your dentist if you experience any of the below symptoms:

  • Extreme and long-lasting sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Swollen or darkened gums
  • Cracked or deeply decayed tooth
  • Severe pain while chewing or biting
