A persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold foods, or swelling around a tooth may indicate an infection that requires Root Canal Treatment (RCT). At Dr. Batra's Dental Clinic, Paschim Vihar, we provide advanced, pain-managed RCT procedures to save infected teeth, relieve discomfort, and restore your oral health. Our experienced endodontic team uses modern technology and follows strict sterilization protocols to ensure safe, precise, and comfortable treatment.
What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth. The canals are carefully cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent reinfection. In most cases, a dental crown is recommended after RCT to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.
Signs You May Need an RCT
- Severe or persistent tooth pain
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swollen or tender gums around a tooth
- Pain while chewing or biting
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
- Dental abscess or recurring gum swelling
