Root Canal Treatment in Trivandrum
Save your natural teeth with root canal treatment
Root Canal Treatment (Endodontic Therapy) is one of the dental procedures used to treat an infected tooth.
During this procedure, the infected pulp and damaged nerve are removed, the tooth is cleaned and disinfected and then at the last the root canal is filled and sealed to prevent further infection.
The clients approaching for root canal treatment include those with a cracked tooth, dying teeth, infected dental nerve, deep cavity or trauma to the tooth.
Many tooth problems like extensive decay or impact injuries, can lead to infection or death of the nerve tissue inside a tooth. This can lead to various symptoms like severe pain, increased sensitivity, swelling of the gums, bad breath or tooth discolouration.
