At SK Dental Clinic, we understand the importance of a healthy and beautiful smile. Our comprehensive range of services is designed to address your dental needs with precision and care. One of the key treatments we specialize in is Root Canal Therapy, a procedure that can save your natural teeth and alleviate discomfort caused by infected or damaged tooth pulp.
Why Root Canal Treatment?
Root Canal Treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, becomes necessary when the pulp – the innermost layer of your tooth – becomes infected or inflamed. This can occur due to various reasons, such as deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the same tooth, a cracked or chipped tooth, or a traumatic injury.

When to Consider
Understanding the signs that may indicate the need for Root Canal Treatment is crucial. You should consider this procedure if you experience:
Persistent Toothache
If you have a toothache that doesn’t subside with over-the-counter pain relievers, it may be a sign of an underlying issue that requires attention.
Sensitivity To Hot Or Cold
Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures that lingers even after the stimulus is removed may indicate pulp inflammation.
Swollen Gums
Swelling around the gums, accompanied by tenderness, could be a sign of an infection that requires treatment.
Discolored Tooth
A change in the color of a tooth, particularly a darkening or graying, may suggest pulp damage.
Pimple On The Gums
The presence of a pimple-like bump on the gums, known as a dental abscess, may indicate an infection that requires intervention.
