Root Canal Treatment in Nagpur
Root Canal Treatment
A Painful tooth due to the involvement of Pulp tissue may require Root Canal Treatment ( RCT) to save it from extraction. Decay causing deep cavity, fractured tooth, severe gum disease causes pulp to inflame or necrose with severe pain and swelling. Root canal treatment is done to extirpate the affected neurovascular tissue inside the root canal, cleaning and shaping thoroughly and filling the space with medicated and inert dental material. This is an essential part of endodontic treatment to salvage the natural tooth so that it can be used again naturally with a supporting crown over it.
