Why magnification changes RCT visualisation
Root canal treatment aims to remove infected pulp tissue, disinfect canals, and seal the space so the natural tooth can be retained. Anatomy is often complex—fine canals and cracks are easier to evaluate under a dental operating microscope.
Dr. Prem Kumar R brings microscopic dentistry training into endodontic care at our Yelahanka clinic, reinforcing precision over guesswork.
Who typically needs RCT
- Deep decay reaching the pulp
- Lingering thermal pain or spontaneous toothache
- Abscess or gum pimple near a tooth
- Trauma exposing or injuring pulp tissue
Aftercare and crowns
Mild tenderness for a few days is common. Many posterior teeth benefit from a protective crown after RCT. Crowns at our clinic are planned with prosthodontist Dr. RV Roshini when coverage is indicated.
Outcomes depend on anatomy, infection severity, and timely final restoration—individual guarantees are never appropriate in ethical dental communication.
