Root Canal Treatment
At We Dental in Coimbatore, root canal treatment (RCT) is done when tooth decay reaches the pulp (the nerve and blood vessels inside the tooth). Unlike older methods that required multiple visits, We Dental uses advanced techniques to complete the procedure in a single sitting, which takes 20 to 45 minutes, depending on whether it’s a front or back tooth.
Here’s how the RCT procedure works:
1. Anesthesia: The dentist numbs the area around the tooth to ensure the patient feels no pain.
2. Access Opening: A small hole is made at the top of the tooth to access the root.
3. Cleaning and Shaping: Special tools are used to clean the infected tissue and shape the root canal.
4. Filling: The cleaned root is filled with a material called gutta percha to seal it and prevent further infection.
5. Restoration: The tooth is restored with a crown or filling to make it functional and natural-looking again.
Benefits of Root Canal Treatment at We Dental:
1. Saves Teeth: It helps save a damaged tooth, keeping your natural smile intact and avoiding the need for replacements like bridges or implants.
2. Improves Oral Health: Removing the infection prevents it from spreading to other teeth and gums.
3. Reduces Pain: The treatment relieves pain caused by an infected tooth.
4. Improves Appearance: It restores the tooth’s natural look.
5. Laser Root Canal Treatment: We Dental also offers laser-assisted RCT, which improves cleaning and speeds up healing. The laser disinfects the root canal better than traditional methods.
6. Isolation for Success: We Dental uses the RUBBER DAM method to isolate the treated area, keeping the tooth dry and uncontaminated during the procedure. This ensures better results by preventing moisture or saliva from interfering with the treatment.
