Root canal therapy (RCT) followed by a crown is the most common mode of treatment for severely decayed teeth. However, this is not devoid of failure. In another case, if a tooth could not be salvaged by RCT, then extraction followed by a bridge (replacing the removed tooth with support from adjacent healthy teeth) became the next best option.

When a small cavity isn't treated on time, the tooth may get so badly decayed that normal filling cannot solve the problem. In such cases, your dentist will probably advise you to have a root canal. When performing a root canal, the dentist will remove the nerves and pulp within the tooth, clean the inside of the tooth and seal it. After this procedure your tooth will not sense anything and should be pain free. However in some cases, you may still experience pain after a root canal.

हमारे दाँतों में तीन परतें होती हैं, इनमें से दो परतें सॉलिड होती हैं जो चबाने में सहायक होती हैं, जबकि तीसरी और निचली परत मुलायम होती है. दाँत का सबसे निचले नरम हिस्सा दाँत का पल्प होता है जो एक सोफ्ट टिश्यू है जिसमें नसें और छोटी ब्लड वेसल्स होती हैं. यह पल्प क्राउन के साथ-साथ रूट कैनाल में भी मौजूद होता है. रूट कैनाल एक ट्यूब होती है जो दाँतों के जड़ में मौजूद होती है. जब दाँतों के बाहरी दो परतें में बैक्टीरियल इन्फेक्शन या फ्रैक्चर हो जाती हैं, तो इससे आपके दाँत के पल्प में सूजन और इन्फेक्शन ...more

A root canal is a treatment to repair and save a badly damaged or infected tooth. The procedure involves removing the damaged area of the tooth (the pulp), cleaning and disinfecting it and then filling and sealing it. The common causes affecting the pulp are a cracked tooth, a deep cavity, repeated dental treatment to the tooth or trauma. The term "root canal" comes from cleaning of the canals inside the tooth's root.

A very interesting thing, that most people would have noticed during their visit to the clinic is the white light that is used on the teeth. This is laser light, which is used extensively over the last couple of decades in dentistry for a variety of treatments. The following are some procedures where the laser is commonly used.
