Root Canal
A root canal is a dental procedure designed to save and restore a tooth that is severely decayed, damaged, or infected. Inside each tooth lies a soft tissue called the pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe pain and may jeopardize the tooth’s health.
During a root canal treatment, the infected pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned and sealed. This procedure not only alleviates pain but also helps preserve the natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction.
Why Choose Root Canal Treatment ?
- Relieves severe tooth pain caused by infection or decay.
- Preserves your natural tooth structure.
- Prevents the spread of infection to other teeth or tissues.
- Restores functionality and aesthetics to your smile.
At Smiley Dental Clinic, we use advanced tools and techniques to ensure that root canal treatments are efficient, pain-free, and successful.

A typical root canal can be completed in one or two visits, depending on the complexity of the case and the tooth being treated.
After a root canal, the tooth may be fitted with a crown to restore its strength and appearance. You may experience mild sensitivity for a few days, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
