  • A hole is drilled on the tooth surface of the decayed tooth to locate the root canal.
  • Once the root canal is drilled on the tooth surface of the decayed tooth to locate the root canal.
  • Once the root canal is located the dentist uses smaller files to remove the affected pulp followed by thorough irrigation of the canal
  • Our dentist will place a medicament to create a microbe-free environment.
  • Then root canals of the tooth are sealed with gutta-percha, a bio-composite material, and a temporary filling is placed on your tooth crown. To protect the damaged tooth until it is ready for a permanent restoration.
  • A house without a roof is of no use. Likewise, root canal treated tooth should be covered by the crown(porcelain/metal/PFM). A crown fits over the top of the tooth and helps protect the tooth from masticatory forces.
  • Crown strengthens your tooth and protects the tooth from further damage and maintains the efficiency of the tooth
