Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation inside a tooth while helping preserve the natural tooth structure. At Dental 360 by Dr DivyaHarish, root canal care is planned with a strong focus on precision, comfort, and long-term tooth preservation.
Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental procedures, root canal treatment may be required.
During treatment, the infected tissue is carefully removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and the canals are sealed to help prevent reinfection. The tooth is then restored to support function and strength.
Root canal treatment may be recommended if you experience:
A detailed clinical examination and dental imaging help determine whether root canal treatment is necessary.
Root canal treatment can help:
Microscope-Assisted Root Canal Treatment
Advanced magnification helps improve visibility and precision, especially in complex root canal anatomy.
Digital Diagnosis & Imaging
Modern diagnostic tools may be used to assess the tooth and plan treatment accurately.
Single & Multiple Canal Treatment
Care is provided for different tooth types, including teeth with complex canal systems.
Re-Root Canal Treatment
Previously treated teeth with persistent or recurrent infection may be reassessed and treated when appropriate.
Restoration After Root Canal Treatment
After treatment, the tooth may require a filling, onlay, or crown depending on the remaining tooth structure.
Pain & Infection Management
Treatment is planned to control infection, reduce discomfort, and restore the tooth as safely as possible.
The tooth is first examined and local anaesthesia is used to improve comfort. The infected pulp is removed, the canals are cleaned, shaped, disinfected, and sealed.
Depending on the condition of the tooth, treatment may be completed in one or more visits. A final restoration is then planned to protect the treated tooth and restore normal function.
Dental microscopes provide enhanced magnification and illumination, helping the dentist identify fine details within the tooth that may be difficult to see with the naked eye.
This can be especially useful in locating additional canals, managing complex anatomy, and improving precision during treatment.
At Dental 360 by Dr DivyaHarish, our approach to root canal treatment is centred on preserving natural teeth whenever possible. With careful diagnosis, modern technology, and personalised care, we aim to make treatment precise, comfortable, and focused on long-term dental health.
