Root Canal Treatment to Address Tooth Infection
Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity may need an examination to find the cause. If the tooth’s inner tissue is affected, root canal treatment may be discussed as one way to treat it and preserve the tooth.
The number of visits and restoration needed depend on the diagnosis, tooth and treatment plan.
Consultation fee: ₹1,500 one time.

Root canal FAQs
Before your appointment
Does tooth pain always need a root canal?
No. Several conditions can cause pain. An examination is needed before choosing treatment.
Can a root canal be done in one visit?
Some cases may be completed in one visit; others need more than one. Your clinician will explain the expected schedule.
Will the tooth need a crown?
That depends on the remaining tooth structure and bite. Ask which restoration is recommended and why.
