What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment (endodontic therapy) is a procedure to save a badly damaged or infected tooth by removing the infected pulp (nerve and blood vessels), cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them to prevent reinfection. This saves your natural tooth instead of extracting it.
Save Your Natural Tooth
Root canal treatment saves your natural tooth — preserving your bite, chewing ability, and protecting adjacent teeth from shifting.
Microscopic Precision
We use dental operating microscopes to see details invisible to the naked eye — allowing for more accurate treatment and higher success rates.
Painless & Comfortable
With modern anesthesia techniques and our full-time anesthesiologist, root canal treatment is comfortable — most patients report no more pain than a filling.
Am I a Candidate?
Root canal treatment is needed when the tooth pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma.
✅ Good Candidates
- Severe toothache
- Sensitivity to hot/cold
- Swollen or tender gums
- Discolored tooth
- Deep decay or cracks
The Root Canal Process
Examination & X-Rays
We examine the tooth, take digital X-rays, and assess the extent of infection. We discuss treatment options and anesthesia.
Anesthesia
The tooth and surrounding area are numbed with local anesthesia. For anxious patients, IV sedation is available.
Pulp Removal & Cleaning
Under the dental microscope, we access the pulp chamber, remove infected tissue, and clean/shape the root canals with rotary instruments.
Disinfection & Sealing
The canals are irrigated with antimicrobial solutions, then sealed with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha) to prevent reinfection.
Restoration
The tooth is restored with a filling or crown to restore strength and function. A crown is usually recommended for back teeth.

Root Canal Treatment in Wuhan FAQ
Q: Is root canal treatment painful?
A: No. With modern anesthesia, root canal treatment is no more painful than getting a filling. The pain you feel before treatment (from the infection) is actually relieved by the procedure. Most patients report feeling comfortable throughout.
Q: How long does a root canal take?
A: A simple root canal takes 30–60 minutes. Complex molars with multiple canals may take 60–90 minutes. We use rotary instruments and microscopes for efficiency and accuracy. In some cases, treatment may be completed in one visit.
Q: What is the success rate of root canal treatment?
A: Root canal treatment has a 90–95% success rate for primary treatments. Success depends on proper diagnosis, thorough cleaning/disinfection, good sealing, and proper restoration. Our microscopic approach and specialist experience contribute to our high success rates.
Q: Do I need a crown after root canal?
A: For back teeth (molars and premolars), a crown is usually recommended after root canal treatment because the tooth becomes more brittle and needs protection from fracture. For front teeth, a filling may be sufficient if the tooth structure is intact.
