A clinically guided procedure designed to treat infection within the tooth, relieve pain, and preserve the natural tooth structure.
When the inner pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed—often due to deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures—pain, sensitivity, and swelling may occur. If left untreated, infection can progress and lead to abscess formation or tooth loss.
Root Canal Treatment at Esmée is performed using evidence-based techniques aimed at removing infection, alleviating discomfort, and preserving the natural tooth wherever possible. The procedure focuses on thorough disinfection and careful sealing of the tooth to restore function and prevent reinfection.
The dentist evaluates the affected tooth using clinical examination and diagnostic imaging to confirm infection and assess tooth structure.
The infected pulp tissue is carefully removed from the tooth’s inner canals to eliminate bacteria and inflammation.
The canals are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to remove residual bacteria and debris.
The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection.
A filling or crown may be placed to restore strength and protect the treated tooth.
