What is Single-Sitting RCT?

Traditional RCT often requires multiple visits to the dentist to complete the treatment. However, with advancements in dental technology, it is now possible to perform RCT in a single sitting. This approach can significantly reduce discomfort and inconvenience for patients.

Benefits of Single-Sitting RCT:

• Convenience: Completing RCT in a single visit saves you time and eliminates the need for multiple appointments.
• Reduced Discomfort: By finishing the treatment in one session, we can minimize the discomfort associated with multiple procedures.
• Preservation of Natural Teeth: RCT can help preserve your natural teeth, preventing the need for more invasive treatments like extractions and dental implants.
• Improved Aesthetics: A successful RCT can help maintain the natural appearance of your smile.

The Single-Sitting RCT Process

1. Consultation: Our experienced dentists will assess your oral health and determine if you are a suitable candidate for single-sitting RCT.
2. Anesthesia: You will be provided with local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
3. Root Canal Preparation: The dentist will access the infected root canal and remove the damaged tissue.
4. Cleaning and Disinfection: The root canal will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to prevent future infections.
5. Filling: A special filling material will be placed in the root canal to seal it and prevent bacteria from re-entering.
6. Restoration: A crown or filling will be placed on top of the treated tooth to restore its function and appearance.
