Microscope root canal treatment

Root Canal Treatment is a highly effective procedure that saves severely decayed or damaged teeth. At our clinic in Sadashivanagar, Bengaluru, it is one of the most frequently performed dental treatments, helping patients preserve their natural teeth and avoid the need for dental implants or bridges. Our experienced endodontists, Dr. Vishwas and Dr. Shivani, use advanced techniques and high-quality materials, carrying out the procedure under a Carl Zeiss OPMI pico microscope for precision and comfort. With this modern approach, most patients find root canal therapy to be as comfortable as a routine dental filling.

Don’t wait for the pain to get worse!

What is a Root Canal?

Root Canal is a safe and effective way to save a tooth when the inner nerve (pulp) becomes infected or damaged due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental work. Instead of removing the tooth, our endodontists carefully clean out the infection, disinfect the tooth, and fill it with a biocompatible material before placing a crown for protection.

At Summit Dental Clinic, we perform microscope-assisted root canals using advanced techniques for maximum precision and comfort. Thanks to modern technology, the procedure is painless and feels no different from getting a regular filling.

Choosing RCT allows you to keep your natural tooth, avoid implants or bridges, and get back to normal eating without discomfort. Remember — no replacement is as good as your own tooth.

When is a Root Canal Necessary?

Because undiagnosed or partially treated root canals can lead to reinfection, early treatment under a microscope helps prevent retreatment.

Divyashree Thiruvarasan

I got two RCTs done at the Summit Dental Centre. The clinic is very clean and aesthetic, with all the modern equipments like a high magnification operating microscope and high resolution x-rays. Dr Vishwas was found to be professionally competent and courteous, with sincere care taken in the post-op period.

Pavan Sarin

Dr. Vishwas and the team at Summit Dental Clinic are truly exceptional. When I faced a complex dental issue requiring a root canal on an existing crown, they went above and beyond to provide a solution that others had dismissed. Dr. Vishwas's expertise and compassionate approach turned a potentially stressful situation into a positive experience.

Root Canal Treatment:
Your Questions Answered

Is root canal treatment painful?

No. With anesthesia and advanced precision, the procedure is painless. Most patients feel relief after the infection is removed.

Is it normal to have pain after a root canal?

Yes, it’s common to experience mild pain or sensitivity after a root canal as your tooth and surrounding tissues heal. This usually lasts a few days and can be managed with prescribed medications. However, if the pain after a root canal is severe, persistent, or gets worse over time, it’s important to contact your dentist for a check-up.

How long does the root canal treatment take?

Typically 1-2 sittings, depending on the infection. The microscope can sometimes make the procedure quicker by avoiding missed canals.

Is a crown necessary after a root canal?

Yes. After treatment, the tooth becomes fragile and needs a crown for protection and long-term durability.

What to eat after a root canal procedure?

Soft foods like rice, yogurt, smoothies, and soups are recommended. Avoid chewing with the treated tooth until the crown is placed.

What are the side effects of a root canal treatment?

You may feel mild sensitivity for a few days. Serious complications are rare, especially with microscope treatment, which reduces common risks.

How much does root canal treatment cost?

The cost of a root canal varies depending on the tooth involved (front, premolar, or molar), the complexity of the canals, and whether a crown is required afterward. At Summit Dental Clinic, we provide a transparent estimate after your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.

Can a root canal be done in one sitting?

Yes, in some cases. For teeth with less complex anatomy and no severe infection, a root canal can be completed in a single visit. However, for infected or multi-rooted teeth, 2 sittings may be recommended for the best results.

How long does a root canal last?

When done under a microscope and followed by proper crown placement, a root canal-treated tooth can last for decades, often a lifetime. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene play a key role in longevity.
