Single Sitting Root Canal in Khar


The single sitting root canal treatment is carried out in cases where the tooth decay or fracture is very deep and involving the pulp. The pulp if the soft centre of the tooth having nerve endings responsible for causing pain and other sensation. In simple terms it means the removal of the infected or damaged pulp tissue within the tooth and replacement by artificial biocompatible inert filling material. Single sitting root canal treatment is carried out under the influence of a local anesthetic and is painless. Root canal treated teeth have a tendency to become brittle with time therefore must be protected with a crown.
