Root Canal Treatment
Save an infected or deeply damaged tooth with modern root canal therapy. Our Istanbul team prioritises pain relief, infection control, and tooth preservation using magnification and digital imaging.
When Is Root Canal Treatment Needed?
Our Istanbul clinicians assess each tooth and gum condition individually before recommending treatment.
What to Expect During Treatment
Diagnosis & Imaging
Clinical tests and X-rays confirm whether the pulp is infected and root canal therapy is indicated.
Anaesthesia & Access
The tooth is numbed and a small access opening is made to reach the root canals.
Cleaning & Shaping
Infected tissue is removed, canals disinfected and shaped using rotary instruments.
Sealing & Restoration
Canals are filled, the tooth sealed, and a crown recommended to protect long-term strength.
Recovery & Aftercare
Most patients resume normal activities within one to two days. Mild tenderness when biting is normal and settles quickly.
- Take prescribed medication as directed
- Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until permanently restored
- Attend follow-up for crown placement when advised
- Maintain daily brushing and flossing
