Root Canal Treatment in Pune
A root canal has a worse reputation than it deserves. The pain people remember is the infection that sent them to the dentist, not the treatment that ended it.

When it is needed
When decay or a crack reaches the pulp — the nerve and blood supply inside the tooth — the pulp becomes infected. It will not heal by itself, and antibiotics only postpone it.
The alternative to a root canal is losing the tooth. Keeping your own tooth is almost always better than replacing it.
What actually happens
The tooth is numbed properly first. We check that it is numb before starting, and we check again if you tell us you can feel anything.
The infected pulp is removed, the canals are cleaned and shaped with rotary instruments, and the space is sealed. Most teeth are finished in one sitting of 45 to 90 minutes.
A root-treated back tooth becomes brittle, so it needs a crown afterwards to stop it splitting. We will tell you upfront if yours does.
If you are dreading it
Tell us at the start. We will explain each step before it happens, agree a hand signal for stop, and go at your pace. Nobody here will talk you out of being nervous.
Questions
About root canal treatment
Will it hurt?
The tooth is fully numbed, so the treatment itself should not hurt. The area can ache for two or three days afterwards, which ordinary painkillers handle.
How many visits will it take?
One for most teeth. A tooth with a severe infection or unusual canal anatomy may need a second visit a week later.
Do I really need a crown afterwards?
For back teeth, almost always — they take the force of chewing and a root-treated tooth can split without one. Front teeth sometimes manage without.
