RCT Treatment In Janakpur

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a common dental procedure aimed at treating infections inside the tooth. It becomes necessary when the pulp—the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels—gets infected or inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma. If left untreated, the infection can cause severe pain and lead to tooth loss. The RCT procedure involves several steps. First, the dentist takes an X-ray to assess the extent of the damage. Local anesthesia is then administered to ensure the procedure is painless. Next, a small opening is made in the tooth to access and remove the infected pulp. The root canals are then cleaned, shaped, and disinfected using specialized instruments. Once cleaned, the empty canals are filled with a biocompatible material (usually gutta-percha) to seal them and prevent future infection. Finally, the tooth is restored with a filling or crown to bring it back to its normal function and appearance.
