Tooth pain that lingers, wakes you at night, or worsens when you chew is often a sign that the inner portion of the tooth is inflamed or infected. When this happens, root canal treatment may be recommended to remove the source of infection and preserve the natural tooth.
At New Ivory Dental & Implant Clinic in Business Bay, the first step is always diagnosis. Not every toothache requires a root canal. A clinical examination and digital imaging are used to determine whether the pulp inside the tooth is affected and whether treatment is necessary.
The goal of root canal treatment is to eliminate infection while maintaining the structure of the tooth whenever possible.

What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure that involves the removal of inflamed or infected pulp tissue from inside the tooth. The cleaned canal space is then shaped, disinfected, and filled to seal the tooth. This procedure is commonly performed to manage pulp infection or inflammation and to retain the natural tooth structure where clinically appropriate.
Indications for Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment may be recommended in cases involving:
- Pulp inflammation or infection
- Deep dental decay
- Dental trauma affecting the pulp
- Symptoms such as prolonged tooth pain or sensitivity
A recommendation for treatment is based on clinical examination and diagnostic imaging.
Root Canal Treatment Procedures
Root canal treatment may involve the following steps:
- Assessment and Diagnosis
Clinical examination and dental imaging (such as X-rays or CBCT scans, where indicated) are used to evaluate the condition of the tooth. - Cleaning and Shaping
The affected pulp tissue is removed, and the root canals are cleaned and shaped using dental instruments. - Disinfection and Filling
The canals are disinfected and filled with a dental material to seal the space. - Restoration
A filling or crown may be placed to restore tooth structure, depending on clinical requirements.
The number of visits required varies based on tooth condition and clinical findings.
Equipment and Techniques
Root canal treatment may involve the use of commonly accepted dental equipment, including:
- Dental operating microscopes, where clinically indicated
- Digital imaging systems
- Standard endodontic instruments
The choice of equipment and techniques is determined by the dentist based on individual case requirements.

FAQ's
What is a Root Canal Treatment?
A Root Canal is a small passage inside the tooth that has blood vessels and nerves. When a tooth gets infected because of decay or trauma, the nerve inside gets inflamed and possibly infected. A root canal treatment basically is the cleaning of this inflamed tissue inside the root of the tooth. It is later followed by disinfection and sealing of the canal. This is done using small and thin highly flexible files that shape and gently enlarge the canal to remove all the infected tissue. The final step is the placement of a permanent filling or a crown after the root canal treatment is completed.
Which is better - Root canal or extraction?
In general, a Root Canal Treatment is a more conservative option as it helps you to keep the natural tooth. However sometimes the tooth in question may not be worth saving because of extensive decay. Other situations where an extraction might be advisable is when the tooth in question is a wisdom tooth which is not in a proper position or doesn’t have an opposing tooth. Yet another case where a an extraction might be a better option is when the root canal seems to be partially or completely blocked on a painful or symptomatic tooth.
How painful is root canal treatment?
A root canal with correctly administered anesthetic should be usually absolutely painless. Most horror stories heard about root canals are usually due to incorrect or inadequate anesthetic. A mild amount of discomfort is usually present for about 24 hours post root canal treatment which can be very easily controlled with some pain-killers such as bruffen or aspirin.
What is the procedure for a root canal?
First after identification of the tooth in question, the tooth is anesthetized. Then a small hole is made into the tooth to access the diseased nerve tissue. Next the tissue is completely and thoroughly cleaned and removed from the root of the tooth. The root canal is dried and sealed using a sealer. Finally a permanent restoration – either a filling or a crown is placed on top to reinforce and restore the tooth to its original strength and function.
How long does a root canal treatment take to perform?
Depending on the number of canals and the complexity a root canal can take anywhere from twenty minutes to more than an hour. Sometimes in extremely challenging cases it can take two or more sittings.
How long does a root canal treated tooth last?
A Root canal treated tooth is like any other health tooth and can potentially last indefinitely. The crown or filling however might need to be changed depending on wear.
Can I have a hot drink after root canal?
Yes, you should be able to enjoy your cuppa! A root canal treated tooth is usually insensitive to hot or cold.
What should I eat after root canal?
Usually a root canal treated tooth is a bit tender to pressure and biting for about 24 hours. You must try and avoid biting on the tooth for a day or two. If the tooth is a grinder it would usually need a crown as soon as possible.
Can I brush my teeth after root canal?
Yes, it is usually ok to brush after a root canal but check with your dentist first. Sometimes there is a risk of a temporary filling dislodging if brushed too early.
Which is better – Root Canal or Dental Implant?
In most cases we try to be conservative and perform a root canal treatment. However, there might be situations where a root canal might not be predictable enough and an extraction followed by an implant placement might be a better choice. For more details on dental implants, Click here
What are the latest advances in Root Canal Treatment?
A Cone Beam Computed Tomograph or CBCT for short is used to see a 3D Map of the tooth so hidden canals and other anomalies and difficulties are spotted before even starting the RCT. A bit of anesthetic is given to prevent any pain. Access is made using a dental operating microscope for being conservative and preserving the maximum amount of tooth structure. Nickel Titanium rotary files are then used to access and clean the infected tissue rapidly and effectively. Most of the time an RCT can be completed as a single visit root canal treatment. If time permits, the crown can also be delivered in the same visit.
