Root Canal Treatment – How It Helps Save Your Tooth

When a tooth becomes severely decayed, cracked, or infected, many people think extraction is the only solution. However, root canal treatment (RCT) is a highly effective way to save your natural tooth and restore oral health. At Pain Free Dentist Sydney, we provide gentle and comfortable care so you can keep your smile healthy without unnecessary pain.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

A root canal is a dental procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth. Once cleaned and disinfected, the root canals are sealed and strengthened with a filling or crown. This stops the spread of infection, relieves pain, and allows you to keep your natural tooth instead of removing it.

Why Choose Root Canal Instead of Extraction?

  • Preserves your natural tooth – keeping your natural teeth is always better than artificial replacements.

  • Prevents further dental problems – extraction can cause shifting teeth, bone loss, or bite issues.

  • Relieves pain – an infected tooth nerve can cause severe toothache, sensitivity, and swelling.

  • Long-term solution – with proper care, a tooth treated with root canal therapy can last a lifetime.

Signs You Might Need a Root Canal

  • Severe toothache or pain when chewing

  • Sensitivity to hot and cold

  • Swelling or gum tenderness

  • Darkening of the tooth
