Real procedure video from Deeksha Dental Care, Bikaner. See exactly what happens during a modern, painless RCT.
Rotary NiTi file system for accurate, fast shaping
95%+ accuracy in root length measurement
Virtually painless procedure with modern local anesthesia
Modern RCT is generally painless due to effective anesthesia techniques.
Usually 1–3 visits depending on infection severity.
Yes, especially for back teeth to prevent fracture.
Leading endodontists from premier dental institutions share consistent evidence-based protocols that our clinic follows:
Top clinicians recommend nickel-titanium rotary instruments for canal preparation — faster, safer, and more precise than manual stainless steel files. Reduces procedural errors significantly.
Expert consensus: electronic apex locators provide 95%+ accuracy in working length determination, reducing radiation exposure and improving outcomes versus radiographic method alone.
The gold standard irrigant worldwide. Used at 2.5–5.25% concentration, it dissolves organic tissue, kills bacteria including biofilm — proven in clinical studies spanning decades.
Research from top universities shows single-visit RCT has equal or better success rates for vital (non-infected) teeth compared to multi-visit protocol — less patient discomfort, fewer appointments.
Studies show that posterior teeth without crowns after RCT are 6× more likely to fracture within 2 years. A zirconia or metal-ceramic crown provides essential fracture resistance and seals the tooth from reinfection.
Well-performed RCT has a documented 95%+ success rate over 10 years. Failure is typically due to coronal leakage (missing crown), missed canals, or vertical root fracture — all preventable with proper protocol.
Important: After RCT, the tooth is temporarily or permanently restored. Proper diet in the first 48–72 hours is critical for healing and preventing restoration failure.
First 24 hours: Only soft foods, no chewing on treated tooth. Days 2–3: Mild improvement, still avoid hard/crunchy. After crown placement: Normal eating resumes within a week. Always: If temporary filling — avoid very sticky or hard food until permanent crown is placed.
