Save your natural tooth β comfortably, and with precision.
Root canal therapy has an undeserved reputation for being painful β in reality, it's the treatment that relieves the severe pain caused by an infected or inflamed tooth pulp. Thanks to modern anaesthesia and techniques, most patients find a root canal no more uncomfortable than getting a filling.
Dr. Kalyan Arora has a special clinical interest in endodontics (root canal therapy) and brings precision and genuine care to every procedure. Our goal is to save your natural tooth and get you out of pain β fast.
X-rays confirm infection and allow us to map the root canal system precisely.
The area is fully numbed β you should feel pressure but no pain throughout.
A small opening is made in the crown of the tooth to access the pulp chamber.
The infected or inflamed pulp is carefully removed from the canals using fine instruments.
Canals are cleaned, disinfected, and shaped to receive the filling material.
Canals are sealed with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha), and a crown is placed to protect the tooth long-term.
No β the procedure is done under local anaesthetic. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is. Any post-procedure soreness typically resolves within a few days.
Common signs include severe toothache, prolonged sensitivity to hot/cold, dark discolouration, swelling or gum tenderness. Only an X-ray confirms it.
Most root canals are completed in 1β2 appointments, each lasting 60β90 minutes.
A dental crown is usually recommended to protect the treated tooth. The tooth can last a lifetime with proper care.
