What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

They communicated super fast, with clarity, they provided all useful informationTatiana, Malaysia, 03 01 25

I need an emergency retainer removal, as it got damaged and was hurting my mouth and my tongue. Since I am travelling and in whole KL my insurance company has no contracted doctors, I have to find the help by myself. I was super grateful to find Smileworks and especially Dr. Nor Ikhwan Abu Bakar DDS, as he and also his assistant were both super friendly and professional. They communicated super fast, with clarity, they provided all useful information and the dental service was clean, fast and very professional. I could not recommend them more! If I was living in KL this would definitely be my forever dentist. Thank you for everything!
