Are you late in visiting your dentist and your tooth has started aching? Visit AMD Dental Clinic now to save your tooth with a painless root canal treatment.
A tooth is a complex structure made up of the hard outermost layer called enamel. Inside this lies dentin which is less mineralized but more elastic than enamel and contains dentinal tubules which transmit the sensation to the soft tissue inside called the pulp. The pulp part of a tooth consists of blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissues.
When the pulp in your teeth gets infected with bacteria, it starts causing several dental problems such as severe pain while eating food, swollen and tender gums, etc. In such cases, our best dentists remove the decayed portion along with infected pulp and fill it with appropriate material to save the natural tooth. This whole procedure of cleaning infected pulp and saving the tooth is called a Root canal treatment.
Let's understand the importance of removing bacteria in dental pulp, when the pulp is infected with bacteria, it begins to multiply within the pulp chamber. This multiplied bacteria and other decayed debris cause various infections. When the infection spreads all the way down to the roots of the tooth it causes a dental abscess (tooth pus) around the tooth. It can further cause bone loss, excessive swelling around the areas of the face and neck, etc. The patient may experience pain spreading to the brain, neck, and ear. To prevent all these issues having a root canal procedure is important, a regular visit at our best dental clinic can help you keep a check on these infections and offer painless RCT treatment.
Root canal pain
Many people have this misunderstanding that root canal treatments are extremely painful, but the fact is root canals are not painful. Our dentists inject an anaesthetic agent that numbs the area to make the treatment painless for the patient and it feels like a regular dental procedure for the patient. Also, the fear of needle pricks can set the mood apart, but our dentists understand this therefore we provide a painless injection experience. Root canal pain is a problem if the dentist has not cleaned the canals properly or if not able to locate all the root canals. We at AMD Dental Clinic give appropriate time and ensure 100% successful RCT treatment to the patient. However, a little post-operative pain is unavoidable, and the patient is prescribed medication, such as pills for toothache, tooth pain tablets, or toothache medicine.

- 1) Painful gums with swelling
- 2) Excessive tooth sensitivity, especially to hot and cold food.
- 3) Intense pain while chewing and biting

How our dentist completes the procedure of a root canal at AMD Dental Clinic, Jaipur
Root canal treatment starts with a scan. Our best dentists have a deep conversation with the patient to understand the exact symptoms and the area of pain. Once our dentists get the exact area and tooth that needs the root canal, they place a tiny amount of numbing medication on the patient's gum and a local anaesthetic agent will be injected so the patient does not feel any kind of pain while the root canal treatment goes on. The next step of a painless root canal procedure at AMD Dental Clinic is our dentists will make a small opening in the tooth which is causing the pain. Once the infected pulp, bacteria, and decayed nerve tissue are exposed, our painless root canal specialist will carefully remove it using appropriate equipment.
The area from which the bacteria and infected pulp is cleaned using endodontic files. AMD Dental Clinic uses the best quality endodontic files which can reach the hardest part of a tooth and can very easily clean the full length of the tooth and scrub the sides of the root canals. These files can be hand or rotary, AMD Dental Clinic makes sure of using files that are fracture-free to avoid any kind of risk of file separation. Our dentists use an endo motor to reach the precise point of treatment, this high-tech equipment helps our doctors to treat patients with precision. Once the cleaning is done, the area is flushed with water or sodium hypochlorite to remove the debris. To measure the root canal working length, AMD Dental Clinic uses an electronic device named Apex locator, which is usually attached to an endodontic file while root canal treatment.
Sealing the teeth depends on various factors if a patient's tooth has an infection, in such cases our dentist puts medication inside the tooth to get rid of the infection for few days before obturation. In some cases, it can be filled on the same day. If root canal treatment is not done in a single visit, our dentists add a temporary filling to keep out saliva and food. If the infections are widely spread and that has extensive decay or a large filling, the patient requires a crown.

FAQs
What is root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment is a procedure designed to save a tooth that is infected or severely decayed. The infected pulp, the innermost layer of the tooth, is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed. This treatment helps prevent the infection from spreading and allows the tooth to function normally again.
When is root canal treatment necessary?
Root canal treatment may be necessary if you experience persistent tooth pain, swelling around the tooth, sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, or a visible abscess on the gum. Our dentists will diagnose the cause of your discomfort and determine if root canal treatment is the best course of action. Additionally, suppose you're undergoing treatments such as wisdom tooth removal or tooth filling or are receiving metal braces. In that case, addressing any underlying infections that might require a root canal is essential.
What is the procedure for root canal treatment?
The root canal treatment procedure typically involves several steps. An initial consultation and X-rays are used to diagnose the infection. Local anesthesia numbs the area, and a dental dam is placed to isolate the tooth. The dentist then accesses the infected pulp, removes it, and carefully cleans and disinfects the inside of the canals. After shaping the canals, they are filled with a sealing material. In most cases, a temporary filling is placed on the tooth. Finally, a permanent crown or restoration is placed on the tooth during a follow-up appointment to protect it and restore full functionality. This restoration process is similar to procedures used in crown & bridge treatments, ensuring your tooth's durability and strength.
Is root canal treatment painful?
Modern techniques and local anesthesia ensure that root canal treatment is generally a comfortable procedure. You may experience some mild discomfort after the treatment, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. It's comparable to the discomfort you might feel after other dental procedures like temporomandibular joint treatment.
What are the benefits of root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment offers several benefits. It relieves tooth pain and discomfort, prevents the spread of infection, and saves the natural tooth. This can help you avoid the need for a tooth extraction and potential future complications. Additionally, a healthy tooth improves your overall oral health and allows you to chew comfortably.
