Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is a complex dentistry procedure to protect a decayed tooth from extraction. When a case of tooth decay cannot be rectified by filling, the dentist suggests Root Canal Treatment or RCT. The soft tissue lying beneath the hard dentin gets inflamed causing unbearable pain. The dentist extracts that inflamed pulp and the space is filled with root canal fillings and sealed. The entire procedure is done with anesthesia and the patient does not experience any pain. Initially, a temporary covering is provided to allow things to settle. After a few days, a cap or crown is placed over the treated tooth that remains fixed forever. The entire procedure takes 2 sittings. You may need an extra visit to get the crown properly placed.
Procedure detail
In RCT, the infected tooth pulp is removed and the infected inside areas are sealed and filled. It prevents the further infection of pulp which saves the tooth
Why is it needed?
Usually, RCT is done to treat tooth infection known as ‘pulpits’, and prevent further tooth decay. Conditions for RCT are:
- Severe toothache while biting or chewing
- The sensitivity of tooth to cold and heat
- Discoloration and swelling near the tooth
- Broken tooth
- X-ray shows infected tooth
Facts and figures
- It is not true that RCT is the most painful dental treatment
- 14 million and more RCTs are done in the US every year, with 95% rate of success
Risk and Complications
- Injury or inflammation to adjacent teeth structure
- Reaction to medicines
- Continued pain and numbness
- Reaction to local anesthesia
Preoperative Preparation
- Visit the dentist to know about pre and post-procedure
- Inform regarding allergies and smoking/alcohol habits. Quit smoking
- Tooth x-rays
- Know about medicines allowed or not allowed before the procedure
- Ask help from friends or family or other caregiver post-procedure
Post operative care
- The patient might feel numbness around mouth, cheeks, and lips immediately after the procedure, which would subside in 3-4 hours. Till then, the patient should avoid chewing
- Temporary crown or filling is placed in RCT tooth
Dos, Don’ts and Precautions

Rinse with salt water 3 times every day to control the swelling and pain
Take the medicines prescribed punctually
Avoid chewy and hard foods
Floss and brush regularly

Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are specially created materials use to repair dental cavities or restore broken or worn-down teeth. The most common use is to fill the cavity caused by tooth decay.
Filling materials can be porcelain, gold, silver amalgam, tooth-colored plastic and glass materials, or composite resin fillings. The dentist will clean the dental cavity and select the best material suitable for your teeth. You can make your own choice based on the price of the fillings. Such fillings are known as direct fillings.
An indirect filling is done when the tooth structure is not enough to support a filling and neither has it required a crown. Indirect fillings are of two types – Inlays and on lays. Inlays are done within the bumps of the chewing surface and on lays are more extensive covering one or more than one cusps. On lays are often termed partial crowns. Traditional or direct fillings can last for 10-15 days and indirect fillings can last for more than 30 years.

Orthodontics
This branch of dentistry deals in rectifying the defective configuration of teeth known as malocclusion. Extreme malocclusion can create difficulty in speech, eating, and maintaining oral hygiene.

An orthodontist’s job is to close wide gaps in the teeth and align their position, straighten the crooked teeth, improve chewing and speech, boost gum health, and prevent long-term wear and tear of the teeth.
An orthodontist uses a range of devices like braces, headgear, plates, aligners, space maintainers, retainers, splints, lip and cheek bumpers, etc. to fulfill the client’s specific requirements. This is one of the sought-after cosmetic dental procedures in medical tourism. Medical tourism advisors and facilitators are flooded with inquiries related to it.
