Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a highly effective dental procedure used to save and restore teeth that are severely decayed, infected, or damaged. At Smilz – The Dental Studio, we offer advanced, painless root canal treatments that help preserve your natural teeth and prevent the need for extraction.

The tooth consists of a hard outer layer and a soft inner part called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma, it can cause intense pain, sensitivity, swelling, or abscess formation. Root canal therapy removes the infected pulp, disinfects the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection.

The procedure typically involves one to two visits. Dr. Akanksha Gupta begins by numbing the area for a pain-free experience. The infected pulp is carefully removed, the root canals are cleaned and shaped, and then filled with a biocompatible material. A dental crown is usually placed afterward to protect and strengthen the tooth.

Modern techniques and technology used at Smilz ensure that RCT is quick, comfortable, and highly successful. Contrary to popular belief, root canal treatment is no longer a painful process. With proper care, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.

Root canal treatment not only relieves pain but also restores full chewing function, maintains natural tooth structure, and prevents neighboring teeth from shifting. It is a crucial option for patients who wish to save their natural tooth rather than opting for extraction and replacement.

Aftercare includes maintaining good oral hygiene, avoiding hard foods on the treated tooth until it’s fully restored with a crown, and attending regular dental check-ups.

At Smilz – The Dental Studio, Dr. Akanksha Gupta combines precision, experience, and gentle care to ensure your root canal treatment is smooth and effective. We’re committed to preserving your natural teeth with treatments that are both scientifically sound and patient-friendly.
