Root Canal Treatment (RCT) in Chennai – U.S. Dental Care

Save Your Natural Teeth with Gentle Root Canal Care

Tooth pain that keeps you awake at night or makes eating difficult is often a sign of an infection deep inside your tooth. Instead of extracting it, Root Canal Treatment (RCT) allows us to save your natural tooth while eliminating the pain and infection.

At U.S. Dental Care in Chennai, we specialize in advanced, painless root canal treatments. Using state-of-the-art technology, digital X-rays, and modern anesthesia, our expert dentists ensure you remain relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root Canal Treatment is a dental procedure that removes infection from the pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels). Once the infection is cleared, the canal is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed with a protective filling or crown.

Without RCT, the infection can spread, leading to abscesses, bone damage, or even loss of the tooth.

  • Severe toothache while chewing or biting
  • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Swollen or tender gums near the tooth
  • Darkening or discoloration of the tooth

FAQs – Root Canal Treatment at U.S. Dental Care

Not at all. Thanks to modern anesthesia and techniques at U.S. Dental Care, RCT is virtually painless. Patients often compare it to getting a simple filling.

In most cases, RCT can be completed in 1–2 visits, depending on the severity of the infection.

The cost depends on the complexity and the tooth involved. Contact U.S. Dental Care for an accurate estimate.

The infection may spread to the jawbone, gums, or even bloodstream. Eventually, the tooth will need extraction.
