Root Canal Treatment

What Is a Root Canal?

Root canal therapy is a dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation inside a tooth, typically caused by deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental treatments. This treatment can save your natural tooth and prevent the need for extraction.

At Boston Dental Center Abu Dhabi, our experienced dentists and endodontists perform painless root canal procedures using the latest technology to ensure precision, comfort, and long-term results.

During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels) is removed. The inside of the tooth is then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection.

Do You Need Root Canal Treatment?

You may require root canal therapy if you’re experiencing one or more of the following symptoms: Severe, persistent toothache when chewing or applying pressure Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the source is removed Darkening or discoloration of a tooth Tenderness or swelling in the surrounding gums A pimple-like bump on the gum (dental abscess) that keeps coming back Pain when tapping or touching the tooth If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to seek professional dental care immediately to prevent the infection from spreading or causing permanent tooth loss.

How Is a Root Canal Performed?

Step 1: Diagnosis

Digital X-rays are taken to assess the root canal shape and detect infection in the surrounding bone.

Step 2: Local Anesthesia and Isolation

The tooth is numbed and isolated with a rubber dam to keep it dry and bacteria-free.

Step 3: Access and Cleaning

A small opening (access cavity) is created in the crown of the tooth. The infected pulp is removed, and the canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected using precise rotary instruments.

Step 4: Sealing the Canals

The canals are filled with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha) and sealed to prevent re-infection. A temporary filling is placed to close the access hole.

Step 5: Final Restoration

In most cases, a dental crown is needed to restore the tooth’s structure and strength after root canal therapy. This is done at a follow-up visit.

I had a really great experience with my dentist Dr. Bobana. She was incredibly professional, caring and patient throughout the whole process. She helped me treat all my teeth that had cavities and put together a clear treatment plan to make sure everything was taken care of properly. She explained everything along the way, made me feel comfortable and reassured, and was always gentle and attentive. I’m very grateful for her care and dedication. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist who genuinely cares about her patients and their dental health!

I have visited the Center several times. I had a dental cleaning and consultation with Dr. Bobana, who referred me to Dr. Khaled for a root canal retreatment. The procedure went very well. I also visited Dr. Sam, the orthodontist, to discuss braces. The doctors work closely together, which is great for addressing all dental issues and providing comprehensive care.

Have been a patient of both Dr Bobana and Dr Khalid, including fillings, root canals, crowns, cleanings. Both are outstanding. I’ve seen many dentists in different cities and countries over the course of my life and I can say they are some of, if not the most, competent and best.
