What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) removes infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth, cleans and disinfects the root canals, and seals them to prevent further infection. Contrary to popular belief, modern RCT is virtually painless and performed under local anaesthesia.
At The Urban Smile in Sainikpuri, Dr. Deepak Kumar uses advanced laser-assisted techniques for root canal treatment — making the procedure faster and more comfortable than traditional methods.

When Do You Need a Root Canal?
The RCT Procedure — Step by Step
Dr. Deepak examines the tooth and takes a digital X-ray to assess the extent of infection.
The area is numbed completely — you will feel no pain during the procedure.
The infected pulp is removed through a small opening in the crown of the tooth.
Root canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected using laser-assisted instruments.
Canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent re-infection.
A dental crown is placed to restore the full strength and appearance of the tooth.
