Root Canal Treatment in Pune
Root canal treatment (RCT) saves a tooth whose inner pulp is infected, inflamed or damaged, by cleaning out the infection and sealing the tooth from inside. At Vinaykia Dental Care in Pune, RCT is done under local anaesthesia, usually in one or two visits, and the cost is explained before we begin.
Every treatment plan is confirmed after your examination. Results vary from person to person.
About the treatment
What is root canal treatment?
Inside every tooth is soft tissue called the pulp. Deep decay, a crack or an injury can let infection reach it. Left untreated, the infection can spread, causing severe pain and swelling of the gums. A root canal removes the infected pulp, cleans and shapes the canals, and seals them.
Saving your natural tooth is usually better than removing it: RCT keeps your smile, your bite and your ability to chew. After treatment, a crown is placed to protect the tooth and keep it strong.

FAQs
Root Canal Treatment: common questions
Is a root canal painful?
+
Root canal treatment is done under local anaesthesia, so most patients feel relief rather than pain. Some tenderness for a few days afterwards is normal.
How many visits does RCT need?
+
Most root canal treatments are completed in one or two visits, depending on the condition of the tooth.
What is the cost of root canal treatment in Pune?
+
It depends on the tooth and how complex the treatment is. We explain the full cost before starting, with no hidden fees, and EMI options are available.
Is it better to remove the tooth instead?
+
Saving the natural tooth is usually the better choice, as it keeps your smile, bite and chewing intact. Your dentist will advise if a tooth cannot be saved.
Is a crown necessary after RCT?
+
Usually, yes. A crown protects the treated tooth and helps keep it strong.
Is root canal treatment suitable for children?
+
In some cases. Our dentist examines the child's tooth carefully and decides based on its health.
