Root canal treatment (RCT)

Root canal treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure that is used to treat severe tooth decay or infection. The procedure involves removing the infected or damaged tissue within the tooth and filling it with a biocompatible material. This treatment is performed when the tooth's nerve or pulp is infected, inflamed, or injured, and can help to relieve pain, save the tooth, and prevent further infection or decay.

RCT is an important dental procedure that can help to save a tooth, relieve pain, and prevent further infection or decay. Patients who undergo root canal treatment should take proper care of their teeth after the procedure to ensure proper healing and continued oral health. If you suspect that you may need root canal treatment, consult with your dentist to discuss your options and create a treatment plan that works best for you.
