A Root canal treatment is the dental procedure that clears the decay in your tooth’s pulp and root. Your teeth have an enamel layer on the outside, a second layer of dentin , and a soft inside core that extends into the root in your jawbone. The core contains the dental pulp, which consists of nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue. When decay gets into the soft core, the pulp can become inflamed or infected or even necrotic or dead. A root canal treatment is needed to clean out the infection and decay.

RCT is a multi-step procedure and it usually takes 1-2 sittings , but can take longer based on the condition of the tooth and the level of infection .
1. XRAY : An XRAY of your affected / infected teeth is taken to determine the cause of your pain and the extent of decay . A local anaesthesia is injected into your teeth to numb the teeth and to ensure you have a painless procedure .
2. Removal of decay and making a cavity : The next step is the removal of all the visible carries and decays and making a cavity in the tooth to get access to inner pulp .
3. Removal of infected pulp : The infected / inflamed pulp is removed completely.
4. Cleaning , disinfecting and preparing the canals : Once the infected pulp has been removed the canals are then disinfected using saline solution . Cleaned canals are prepared to fill with filling material.
5. Seal the canals : In some cases the canals can be sealed with the rubber based material in the same sitting itself . Such treatment is called “Single -sitting root canal. However most cases require a gap of 3-5 days before the canals get permanently sealed. During this period the dentist places a calcium based medication to allow the inflamed tissue to heal.
6. Post root canal filling and crown : Once the canals have been sealed , it’s time to restore the decayed crown part of your tooth using tooth filling material. Lastly a tooth crown is shaped for the placement of a cap that will strengthen the tooth.
