What Is a Root Canal Treatment (RCT)?

A root canal treatment is done to save a tooth when the soft inner tissue (called the pulp) becomes infected or damaged, often due to deep cavities, cracks, or untreated dental issues. The dentist removes the infection, cleans the tooth from the inside, seals it, and places a crown to protect it.

If such issues are neglected or left untreated, the infection can spread to nearby tissues, cause swelling, abscesses, and eventually lead to tooth loss. Getting an RCT on time not only relieves pain but also prevents more serious and costly treatments later.

RCT Procedure at Clove Dental: Step-by-Step

Wondering what exactly happens during a root canal treatment in Delhi at Clove? Here’s a stepwise breakdown:

Step 1

Step 1: Checking the Problem & Making an Opening

First, we check the tooth using a digital X-ray to see how deep the damage goes. Then, a small opening is made in the tooth to reach the infected area.

Step 2

Step 2: Removing the Infection

The damaged or infected tissue inside the tooth is carefully cleaned out using special tools. This helps stop the pain and prevent the infection from spreading.

Step 3

Step 3: Cleaning & Disinfecting the Canals

Once the inside is cleared, the canals are shaped and cleaned to remove any remaining bacteria and prepare them for sealing.

Step 4

Step 4: Filling the Canals

The empty space inside the tooth is filled with a safe, rubber-like material to seal it and keep it safe from future infection.

Step 5

Step 5: Rebuilding the Tooth (If Needed)

Sometimes, a small post is placed inside the tooth to give it extra strength. The opening is then sealed with a filling.

Step 6

Step 6: Placing a Crown on Top

To protect the tooth and restore its strength, a dental crown is placed over it—especially for back teeth that do a lot of chewing.

Why Clove Dental Offers Better Value Than Other Clinics

Many clinics in Delhi list attractive base prices for RCTs, but don’t always clarify:

  • If the fee includes X-rays, anesthesia, or crown prep
  • Who will perform the procedure (general dentist vs endodontist)
  • What technology is used (manual vs rotary files)
  • Clove Dental follows a 4-step sterilization process, where we use a fully sterilized set of instruments for each patient, ensuring the highest level of safety and hygiene at every Delhi clinic.

At Clove Dental, you get complete clarity, experienced hands, and a treatment plan that's built around your actual needs.

After Root Canal: What to Expect & How to Care

What’s Normal After an RCT

  • Gum tenderness around the treated tooth
  • Temporary numbness (due to anesthesia)

Aftercare Tips

  • Take prescribed painkillers/antibiotics
  • Avoid hard or sticky foods until crown placement
  • Brush gently and avoid chewing from that side for a few days
  • Complete crown placement promptly to protect the tooth
