ROOT CANAL TREATMENT (RCT)
Root Canal Treatment – Save Your Natural Tooth
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a tooth-saving dental procedure used to treat infection or damage within the tooth pulp. Instead of extracting the tooth, root canal treatment allows you to retain your natural tooth structure while eliminating pain and infection.
At Healthy Dental, we specialize in advanced, painless root canal treatments using modern technology for precise, comfortable, and long-lasting results.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Inside every tooth lies a soft tissue called pulp, containing nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to decay, cracks, or trauma, it causes severe pain, sensitivity, and swelling.
Root canal treatment removes the infected pulp, cleans the canals, disinfects them, and seals the tooth to prevent reinfection.
