With a change in dietary pattern to a refined sugary diet, teeth get exposed to dental cavities even at a very young age. Since the routine visit to the dentist for periodic regular checkups is normally avoided, patient usually presents in a dental clinic when the cavity has advanced to a level where it has become painful. In such cases the only option left with the dentist to save the tooth is to opt for a root canal treatment.

Root canal procedure is simple but highly technique sensitive. Under local anesthesia a smart hole is drilled in the tooth to access the nerve inside the tooth. The nerve is then removed from inside the tooth using special instrument and the space is cleaned and widened to receive a filling and filled.

A major concern of the patient needing a root canal treatment is the associated cost factor. The cost of saving a tooth with root canal is surely less than getting it extracted and replacing it with an artificial teeth. Besides the patient retains the advantage of not loosing one’s natural tooth.
