Root Canal Rescue – When Your Tooth Says “Ouch!”

Does sipping your coffee feel like a dare? Does biting into a crunchy snack send shivers down your spine? That’s not normal—and it’s your tooth waving a red flag.

Tooth sensitivity, shooting pain, and swelling could be signs of a deep infection in the tooth’s pulp (a.k.a. the nerve center). This can happen due to untreated cavities, trauma, cracks, or bacterial buildup that’s dug deep into your tooth. But don’t worry—there’s no need to pull the tooth out just yet.

Enter Endodontics—a.k.a. Root Canal Therapy—your tooth’s last line of defense.

At Ashok’s Dental Clinic, we perform gentle, effective root canal treatments to save your natural tooth and eliminate pain at the root (pun intended!). The process involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning and shaping the canals, then sealing them up tight to keep the bacteria out for good.

You don’t need to fear the dreaded “root canal.” With modern technology, expert hands, and pain management, the procedure is quicker, safer, and more comfortable than ever. We promise—your tooth will thank you later.

Endodontics FAQs

A root canal is a procedure to remove infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth. It's necessary when decay, cracks, or trauma expose the inner nerve, causing pain or risk of abscess.

Nope! With local anesthesia and modern techniques, most patients say a root canal feels no worse than getting a filling.

Usually 1 to 2 appointments, depending on the tooth’s condition. Molars may take a bit longer than front teeth.

In many cases, yes—especially for molars. A crown helps protect and restore the tooth's function and strength.

With proper care and restoration, a root-canaled tooth can last as long as your natural teeth—sometimes even a lifetime.

Delaying can lead to increased pain, infection spreading, tooth loss, or more costly treatment. Best to act early!
