Root Canal Treatment in Bharatpur
Save Your Natural Tooth with Trusted Root Canal Care
A toothache can start small — but when the pain keeps returning, worsens while eating, or comes with sensitivity or swelling, it’s often a sign the problem runs deeper than an ordinary cavity.
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) treats an infected or badly damaged tooth while preserving your natural tooth whenever the case allows.
At United Doctors Dental Clinic, Lions Chowk, Bharatpur-2, Chitwan, RCT is provided by Dr. Srijana Dwa Pradhan and Dr. Puja Sah, with the treatment plan built around each patient’s specific condition.
If tooth pain has been bothering you, the first step isn’t guessing — it’s getting examined.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
RCT is used when the soft tissue inside a tooth — the pulp — becomes infected, inflamed, or severely damaged. Rather than removing the tooth entirely, the dentist cleans out the affected area, seals the canals, and restores the tooth.
The goal: treat the infection, keep the tooth.
The exact approach depends on your tooth’s condition, which is why examination comes before any treatment decision.

7 Signs You Shouldn't Ignore
| Sign | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Recurring tooth pain | Pain that keeps coming back rarely resolves on its own |
| Pain while chewing | Often points to a problem below the surface |
| Lingering hot/cold sensitivity | Brief sensitivity is normal; sensitivity that lingers usually isn’t |
| Swelling around a tooth | Can signal infection — don’t wait this one out |
| Deep decay | Decay reaching the pulp is a common reason RCT gets recommended |
| A cracked or broken tooth | May expose inner structures that need protection |
| A previously treated tooth acting up again | May need Re-RCT (root canal retreatment) |
Not every toothache means you need a root canal — but a tooth can have a serious problem without severe pain. That’s why unusual or persistent symptoms are worth checking early, not once they’ve become unbearable.
The Goal
How Root Canal Treatment Works
Most patient anxiety around RCT comes from not knowing what to expect. Here’s the general sequence:
- Examination & diagnosis — the dentist reviews your symptoms and identifies the cause
- Imaging, if needed — to see the tooth and root structure clearly
- Local anaesthesia — the area is numbed before anything begins
- Cleaning the canals — infected or damaged tissue is removed
- Shaping & sealing — the cleaned canals are sealed to prevent reinfection
- Final restoration — a filling, crown, or other restoration completes the treatment
Every tooth is different, so your dentist will walk you through your specific plan after examination — not a generic script.
Does It Hurt? Does It Take Long?
Pain: Local anaesthesia numbs the treatment area, though some pressure or sensation during the procedure is normal, and mild soreness afterward is common. If dental anxiety is a concern for you, tell your dentist beforehand — it changes how they’ll approach your visit.
Time: There’s no single timeline. The number of appointments depends on which tooth is involved, how many canals it has, how complex the case is, and whether it’s a first treatment or a Re-RCT. Some patients finish in one visit; others need more. Your dentist will give you a realistic estimate once they’ve actually looked at the tooth — not before.
