Root Canal Treatment Procedure

• The endodontist examines and x-rays the tooth to locate the decay
• Then, local anesthesia is given to the affected tooth, you will feel a pinch, but once the tooth is numb, there will be no sensation

The dentist will place a small sheet of rubber or a dental dam in order to isolate the tooth, keep it free from saliva during the procedure.

• The dentist will next use some tools, to access the inside of the tooth by creating an opening in the top portion of the tooth and drain the pulp from the diseased tooth.
• After this the root canals and the pulp chamber are cleaned for filling.
• Finally, the root canal is filled with gutta-percha material and sealed off with cement.
