Root Canal Procedure

Saving Your Natural Tooth with Expert Care

A root canal is a dental procedure designed to save and restore a severely damaged or infected tooth rather than removing it. When the pulp inside a tooth becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, or repeated dental procedures, it can cause intense pain and sensitivity. If left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to abscess formation, swelling, and even tooth loss. A root canal removes the infected pulp, cleans the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further issues, ensuring you keep your natural smile intact.

Many people associate root canals with pain, but with modern dental technology and anesthesia, the procedure is now comfortable and virtually painless. In fact, a root canal relieves pain rather than causing it! At Baraka Smiles Dental Clinic, we use advanced techniques and precision care to make the process smooth and stress-free. If you're experiencing tooth pain, prolonged sensitivity, or swelling, a root canal might be the solution to restore your dental health and protect your smile for years to come.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental treatment used to save a tooth that has been severely decayed or infected. It involves removing the damaged pulp inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the canals, and sealing it to prevent further infection. This procedure helps preserve the natural tooth and eliminates pain.

Am I a Candidate for a Root Canal?

You may need a root canal if you experience persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swollen gums, deep decay, or a cracked tooth. If left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to more serious dental issues. A dentist will assess your symptoms and take X-rays to determine if a root canal is necessary.

What is the Process for Root Canal Treatment?

The procedure is typically done in three steps:

Numbing & Access – The dentist numbs the area and creates a small opening in the tooth.
Cleaning & Shaping – The infected pulp is removed, and the inner canals are cleaned and shaped.
Sealing & Restoration – The canals are filled with a biocompatible material, and a dental crown is placed to restore strength and function.

A root canal is a safe, effective way to relieve pain and save your natural tooth!
