What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure to save a severely infected or damaged tooth. It involves removing the infected pulp tissue from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and then filling and sealing the space.
Contrary to popular belief, modern root canal treatment is virtually painless thanks to advanced anesthesia and rotary endodontic technology. The procedure is designed to relieve pain, not cause it.

- Severe toothache, especially when chewing
