What is a root canal?

A root canal is a treatment to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or infected. During the procedure, the nerve and pulp inside the tooth are removed, and the interior is cleaned and sealed.

Despite its reputation, a modern root canal is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. At Krishna Dental, we use the latest rotary instruments and digital imaging to make the process quick, precise, and virtually painless.

When you might need a root canal

Persistent toothache

Deep, throbbing pain that doesn't go away — especially pain that radiates to your jaw, face, or other teeth.

Sensitivity to hot & cold

A sharp or lingering ache when you drink something hot or cold, even after the source is removed.

Swollen or tender gums

Gums near the painful tooth are puffy, swollen, or have a small bump (abscess) that may ooze.

Darkened tooth

A tooth that has turned grey or dark — a sign that the nerve inside may be damaged or dying.

How we do it

01

Diagnosis & imaging

We take a digital X-ray to see the shape of the root canals and determine the extent of infection. This helps us plan your treatment precisely.

02

Anaesthesia

The area around the tooth is numbed with local anaesthesia. You'll feel comfortable and relaxed throughout — most patients say they barely feel a thing.

03

Cleaning the canal

We create a small opening in the tooth and remove the infected pulp tissue using precision rotary instruments. The canals are carefully shaped and disinfected.

04

Filling & sealing

The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection. A temporary or permanent filling is placed on top.

05

Crown placement

To protect and strengthen the treated tooth, we fit a custom dental crown that looks and feels like your natural tooth. This is usually done in a follow-up visit.

Frequently asked questions

Not at all. With modern anaesthesia, the procedure is virtually painless. Most patients tell us it feels no different from getting a regular filling. Any mild discomfort afterwards is easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
Most treatments are completed in one or two visits, each lasting 45 to 90 minutes. Front teeth are quicker; molars with multiple canals may take a bit longer.
Cost depends on the tooth and complexity. At Krishna Dental, we keep our pricing transparent and affordable. Call us at 086742 44241 for a personalised estimate — there's no charge for the initial consultation.
With a well-fitted crown and good oral hygiene, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime. Regular check-ups help us keep an eye on it and catch any issues early.
Saving your natural tooth is almost always the better choice. Extraction leads to bone loss and requires costly replacements like implants or bridges. A root canal preserves your natural bite, appearance, and jaw health.
An untreated infection will not heal on its own. It can progress to a painful abscess, cause bone loss around the tooth root, and eventually lead to tooth loss. In rare cases, the infection can spread. Early treatment is simpler, faster, and more affordable.
