What is Root Canal Therapy? – In short, Root Canal Therapy (RCT) refers to a procedure wherein the removal of the diseased or damaged pulp of a tooth is carried out followed by the filling and sealing of the pulp chamber and root canals. The alternative to root canal treatment is extracting the affected tooth. How do you know whether you need Root Canal Therapy (RCT)? One indicator is experiencing sensitivity or pain while having a cold/chilled drink. Another indicator is the feeling of pain in the tooth while chewing food. Even if one doesn’t feel pain in the tooth, but there is a sinus near the gum that comes and goes, it may be an indicator that one requires Root Canal Therapy.
