Best Root Canal Treatment in Bangalore — Bracestation Dental Clinic
1. What is root canal treatment, and why is it needed?
Root canal treatment is performed when the pulp inside the tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma. This procedure removes the infected pulp, cleans the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent future infections.
2. What are the symptoms that indicate I might need a root canal?
Common symptoms include:
- Persistent toothache or pain when chewing
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swollen or tender gums
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
- Pimples or abscesses on the gums
If you experience any of these, it’s best to consult your dentist.
3. How is a root canal procedure performed?
The process involves:
- Numbing the tooth with local anesthesia
- Removing the infected pulp
- Cleaning and shaping the root canals
- Filling the canals with a biocompatible material
- Sealing the tooth with a temporary or permanent filling or crown
The procedure is typically completed in 1–2 visits.
4. Is root canal treatment painful?
Contrary to popular belief, root canal treatment is not painful. With modern techniques and anesthesia, it feels similar to getting a dental filling. Post-treatment discomfort is minimal and manageable with pain relievers.
5. What happens after the root canal procedure?
After treatment:
- You may experience mild discomfort for a few days
- A crown may be recommended for added strength
- Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until restoration is complete
- Maintain good oral hygiene and attend follow-up visits
6. Can a root canal save my tooth?
Yes. Root canal therapy preserves your natural tooth, maintains jaw structure, and prevents the need for extraction and replacement options like bridges or implants.
7. How long do root canal-treated teeth last?
With proper care, a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment can last a lifetime. Good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups are key to longevity.
8. Are there alternatives to a root canal?
The main alternative is tooth extraction followed by replacement options like implants, bridges, or dentures. However, saving your natural tooth is usually the preferred option for both function and aesthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about orthodontic care at Bracestation. If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact our team.
What is the best age to get braces?
While orthodontic treatment can be effective at any age, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early intervention can guide proper jaw growth and prevent more serious problems later. However, many patients get braces during their teenage years, and adult orthodontics is increasingly common with about 25% of orthodontic patients being adults.
How long do I need to wear braces?
The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on individual needs, complexity of the case, and treatment method. On average, most patients wear braces for 18-24 months. Some minor corrections may take as little as 6 months, while more complex cases might require up to 3 years of treatment. Your orthodontist will provide a more accurate timeline during your consultation.
Do braces hurt?
Patients typically experience some discomfort when braces are first placed and after adjustment appointments. This discomfort usually lasts for 3-5 days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Modern orthodontic techniques and materials have significantly reduced the level of discomfort compared to braces from previous decades.
What foods should I avoid with braces?
With braces, you should avoid hard foods (nuts, ice, hard candy), sticky foods (caramel, taffy, chewing gum), and foods that require biting into (apples, corn on the cob, carrots). These restrictions help prevent damage to the brackets and wires. You'll receive a comprehensive list of foods to avoid during your treatment.
What's the difference between traditional braces and clear aligners?
Traditional braces use metal brackets and wires to move teeth, while clear aligners like Invisalign use a series of transparent, removable trays. Braces are fixed and cannot be removed until treatment is complete, while aligners can be removed for eating and cleaning. Braces may be more effective for complex cases, while aligners offer aesthetic advantages and easier maintenance. Your orthodontist will recommend the best option based on your specific needs.
How do I care for my braces?
Proper care includes brushing after every meal with a soft-bristled toothbrush, flossing daily with a floss threader or water flosser, avoiding restricted foods, wearing rubber bands as directed, and attending all scheduled adjustment appointments. Good oral hygiene is crucial to prevent cavities and gum problems during orthodontic treatment.
Will I need to wear a retainer after braces?
Yes, wearing a retainer after braces is essential to maintain the results of your orthodontic treatment. Without a retainer, teeth tend to shift back toward their original positions. Initially, you may need to wear your retainer full-time, gradually transitioning to nighttime wear only. Some patients may need to wear retainers indefinitely to maintain their results.
