From Pain to Perfect: Root Canal Done Right.
Looking for painless root canal treatment in Wakad? Our expert dentists use advanced technology to save your natural tooth, relieve pain, and restore your smile with care and precision.
Root Canal Treatment (RCT)
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure that saves a badly decayed or infected tooth. The damaged pulp inside the tooth is removed, the canals are cleaned, disinfected, and sealed, and a crown is placed for strength. At Urban Smile Dental Clinic, Pune, we ensure a painless RCT that restores function and eliminates tooth pain without extraction.
Types of Treatments
We offer single-sitting root canal for quick relief, multiple-sitting RCT for severe infections, re-root canal for failed earlier treatments, microscopic RCT for precision, and laser-assisted RCT for faster healing and higher success rates. Each option is chosen based on your tooth condition.
Procedure
X-ray & Check-up: Dentist examines the tooth.
Numbing: Local anesthesia makes it painless.
Opening: Small opening made on the tooth.
Cleaning: Infection and bacteria removed.
Filling & Sealing: Tooth filled with safe material.
Crown Placement: Cap added for strength & natural look.
The treatment usually takes 1–3 visits, depending on how severe the infection is. After that, your tooth works just like a healthy one!
Benefits
A root canal saves your natural tooth, stops infection spread, restores chewing ability, and maintains your smile. It prevents jawbone damage and avoids the need for extractions, dentures, or implants. It is a long-lasting, cost-effective solution for severe tooth damage.
Post Treatment Care
Avoid biting on the treated tooth until the crown is fitted. Brush twice daily, floss regularly, rinse with antibacterial mouthwash, and attend follow-up visits. Report swelling or unusual pain immediately to your dentist for timely care

Frequently asked questions
Everything You Need to Know About Root Canal Treatment in Wakad
What are the signs you need a root canal?
If you notice one or more of the following symptoms, it’s best to visit your dentist early.
- Severe Toothache: Pain while chewing or even at rest.
- Sensitivity: Sharp pain with hot, cold, or sweet foods that lingers.
- Swelling or Tender Gums: Puffiness, redness, or small pimple-like bumps near the tooth.
- Darkening of Tooth: Tooth turning grey or black due to nerve damage.
- Prolonged Pain: Toothache that doesn’t go away with medicines.
- Cracked or Chipped Tooth: Damage exposing the nerve inside.
Loose Tooth: Infection can make the tooth feel unstable.
What happens if RCT is not done?
Delaying RCT can turn a simple treatment into a serious dental (and health) problem.
- Pain Gets Worse: The infection in the tooth pulp spreads, causing severe toothache that painkillers may no longer control.
- Swelling & Abscess: Pus may collect near the tooth root, leading to swelling in the gums, jaw, or even face.
- Bone Damage: The infection can spread to the jawbone, weakening it over time.
- Tooth Loss: Without treatment, the tooth eventually dies and may need to be extracted.
- Spread of Infection: In serious cases, bacteria can travel through the bloodstream and affect overall health.
That’s why Urban Smile recommends saving the natural tooth with timely root canal treatment.
Do teeth become weak after a root canal?
A root canal itself does not weaken the tooth. What happens is:
- When decay or infection reaches the pulp, the tooth loses its natural strength.
- During RCT, the inside of the tooth is cleaned, and the nerve is removed. This makes the tooth more brittle over time compared to a healthy tooth.
- That’s why dentists usually recommend placing a dental crown (cap) after a root canal. The crown protects the tooth, restores its strength, and lets you chew normally.
In short: The tooth is not weak because of the root canal — it’s protected and saved by it.
Is crown mandatory after RCT?
Not always, but in most cases yes.
- After a root canal, the tooth becomes more fragile and can crack or break while chewing.
- A dental crown (cap) covers and protects the tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and function.
- For back teeth (molars and premolars), a crown is usually mandatory because they handle more chewing pressure.
- For front teeth, if the tooth structure is strong and intact, sometimes a filling may be enough.
A crown is highly recommended by Urban Smile after RCT to make the tooth last longer and function like normal.
How long do root canals last?
With proper care, a root canal can last for 10–15 years or even a lifetime.
- Success depends on good cleaning during treatment, proper filling, and usually protecting the tooth with a crown.
- Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups help the treated tooth stay strong.
- Avoiding very hard foods and habits like nail-biting also increases the tooth’s life.
A root canal can last many years, sometimes for life, if the tooth is crowned and well cared for.
