Root Canal Treatment
Save Your Natural Tooth with Expert Care
What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (RCT) is a highly effective procedure
designed to save and restore severely decayed or infected teeth.
At Dentoamigo, we specialize in painless and precise root canal
treatments using advanced techniques and modern equipment to
ensure a comfortable experience.
When a tooth’s pulp (inner soft tissue) becomes infected due to
deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental procedures, it can
cause severe pain and sensitivity. Without treatment, the
infection can spread, leading to abscess formation and potential
tooth loss. A root canal removes the infected tissue, disinfects
the root canal, and seals the tooth to prevent further damage,
allowing you to keep your natural smile.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
- Severe tooth pain when chewing or biting.
- Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures.
- Swollen or tender gums around the affected tooth.
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth.
- Recurring pimples on the gums near the painful tooth.
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to worsening infections and tooth
loss, so early treatment is essential.

Our Root Canal Treatment Process
- Diagnosis & Consultation – The extent of tooth infection
is evaluated through X-ray examinations which help our dentists to
decide whether RCT is required.
- Local Anesthesia & Pulp Removal – The dental professional
applies local anesthetic to achieve complete pain elimination before
the procedure begins. The specialists go through a careful process
to remove the infected pulp material. Treatment of the root canals
involves thorough cleaning and shaping which also includes complete
disinfection to stop reinfection from occurring.
- Filling & Sealing – Once cleaned and shaped, the
canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed.
- Crown Placement – A crown is usually placed over
the tooth to restore strength and functionality.
