Root Canal Treatment in Kathmandu: Cost, Procedure & What to Expect
Root canal treatment in Kathmandu is a safe and effective dental procedure used to treat infected or severely damaged teeth. If you are experiencing persistent tooth pain, long-lasting sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling, or pus formation, root canal treatment (RCT) may be required to save your natural tooth.
RCT eliminates infection from inside the tooth while preserving its structure and function, making it a preferred alternative to tooth extraction.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (RCT) involves removing infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth. The canals are then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent reinfection and restore tooth health.
When Do You Need Root Canal Treatment?
- Severe or continuous tooth pain
- Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swollen or bleeding gums
- Darkened or discolored tooth
- Pus or abscess near the tooth root
Delaying treatment can allow infection to spread and may eventually result in tooth loss.
Root Canal Treatment Procedure
- Dental Examination & X-ray to assess infection
- Local Anesthesia for a painless experience
- Removal of infected pulp
- Cleaning and disinfection of canals
- Filling and sealing the tooth
- Crown placement if required
Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?
No. With modern anesthesia and advanced techniques, root canal treatment is virtually painless. Most patients experience immediate relief from tooth pain.
