Root Canal Treatment in Nallakunta, Hyderabad
Apollo Dental Clinic in New Nallakunta, Hyderabad, offers modern root canal therapy designed to save your natural tooth. Rather than extracting an infected tooth, a root canal treatment “repairs a badly damaged or infected tooth” by removing the diseased pulp and sealing the canal. Our experienced endodontists combine gentle anesthesia with advanced equipment, so most patients find the procedure virtually pain‑free. Whether your toothache is caused by deep decay, a crack, or repeated dental work, we diagnose and treat the problem to relieve pain while preserving your smile.

Why You Might Need a Root Canal Treatment
Over time, deep cavities or injury can allow bacteria into the tooth pulp (the soft tissue inside). Root canal treatment removes the infection and saves the tooth.
Common warning signs include:
Persistent pain when biting or chewing.
Swollen or tender gums, often with a pimple (abscess).
Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold.
Darkening or discoloration of the tooth.
Cracks or holes in the tooth that expose the inner nerve.
If you notice these symptoms, it usually means the tooth’s nerve has been injured or infected. In such cases, preserving the tooth with root canal therapy (rather than removing it) is the best option. Root canal treatment relieves pain, stops infection from spreading, and lets you keep a functional tooth instead of getting an implant or bridge later.
Advanced Technology for Pain-Free Treatment
Today’s root canal therapy is nothing like the “old drills-and-pain” image. Apollo Dental uses cutting-edge endodontic tools and techniques to make treatment fast and comfortable. We employ high-precision rotary files (as shown above), dental microscopes, and 3D imaging (digital X-rays or CBCT scans) to diagnose and treat each canal with exact accuracy. LASER and ultrasonic devices can disinfect canals more thoroughly than ever, reducing bacteria for better healing.
Because of this technology, many cases are completed in a single visit and with minimal discomfort. Modern anesthesia means almost no pain – most patients feel only slight pressure. In fact, studies note that root canal treatments today are typically “virtually pain‑free” in most cases. At Apollo Dental Nallakunta, we prioritize your comfort: you’ll see that saving your tooth can be a surprisingly easy and gentle process.
Step-by-Step: How a Root Canal Works
A typical root canal procedure follows these steps:
Exam and Anesthesia: We start by examining your tooth and taking X-rays to plan the treatment. Local anesthesia is then applied to numb the tooth and the surrounding gum. (You will feel no sharp pain – only a quick pinch as the numbing takes effect). A rubber dam (a small protective sheet) is placed to isolate the tooth and keep it clean.

Access & Pulp Removal: The dentist drills a tiny opening in the tooth’s crown to reach the infected pulp chamber. The diseased pulp (nerve and blood vessels) is carefully removed from inside the tooth and its root canals, using special endodontic instruments.
Cleaning & Shaping: After removal, the empty canals are cleaned and shaped. We use a series of files and irrigating solutions to remove all debris and bacteria from the canals. This step is critical to ensure no infection remains.
Filling & Sealing: Once clean and dry, the canals are filled with a biocompatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha, which seals the canals to prevent re-infection. Adhesive cement helps lock the material in place.
Temporary Restoration: A soft temporary filling is put in the access opening to seal the tooth. This protects the tooth until you return for the final restoration.
Most root canals take about 60–90 minutes per tooth, depending on complexity. Multi-rooted teeth (like molars) may take a little longer. After treatment, you’ll be given care instructions: avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the numbness wears off, and eat soft foods for the rest of the day. Some mild sensitivity or soreness for a day or two is normal – you can take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed.
A follow-up appointment is scheduled to replace the temporary filling with a permanent crown or filling. This final restoration is important: it protects and strengthens the tooth for long-term function. With proper care (brushing, flossing, regular check-ups), a root canal-treated tooth can function normally for many years or even a lifetime. In fact, clinical data show that about 90–95% of root canal–treated teeth remain healthy and functional in the long run.
