Root Canal Treatment (RCT) at Heritage IMS Hospital

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) at Heritage IMS Hospital

Preserve your natural smile with pain-free precision.

At Heritage IMS Hospital, our dental specialists offer advanced Root Canal Treatment (RCT) to save infected or damaged teeth and relieve pain—without the fear or discomfort traditionally associated with the procedure. Using modern techniques and high-end equipment, we ensure a smooth and comfortable experience for every patient.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root Canal Treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage within the pulp of a tooth—the innermost part that contains nerves and blood vessels. Instead of extracting the tooth, RCT cleans, disinfects, and fills the inner chamber, preserving the natural tooth structure and function.

Who Needs a Root Canal?

You may need an RCT if you experience:

• Persistent toothache or pain, especially while chewing
  
• Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
  
• Swollen gums near a specific tooth
  
• Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
  
• Pus discharge or a small pimple-like bump near the tooth
  

Why Choose RCT Over Tooth Extraction?

• Preserves your natural tooth
  
• Maintains proper chewing function
  
• Prevents shifting of adjacent teeth
  
• Avoids the need for costly replacements like implants or bridges
  

The RCT Process at Heritage IMS

1. Diagnosis & X-ray
   Advanced imaging like digital X-rays or CBCT scans identify the extent of infection and structure of root canals.
   
2. Local Anesthesia
   We use modern anesthetics to numb the area, ensuring the procedure is completely pain-free.
   
3. Pulp Removal
   Infected or dead pulp tissue is removed from the canal.
   
4. Cleaning & Shaping
   The canal is disinfected and shaped using precision rotary instruments for optimal filling.
   
5. Filling the Canal
   The space is sealed with biocompatible material (like gutta-percha) to prevent future infection.
   
6. Crown Placement
   A dental crown may be placed over the treated tooth to restore strength, shape, and appearance.
