Root Canal Treatment
What is Root Canal Treatment (RCT)?
Root Canal Treatment is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage inside the tooth, particularly the pulp (nerve tissue). It involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning the root canals, and sealing the tooth to prevent future issues. This procedure saves your natural tooth and eliminates the need for extraction.
