Save Your Natural Tooth and Get Relief From Deep Tooth Pain

Severe tooth pain that won’t go away?

If you have sharp, throbbing pain, sensitivity that lingers, or swelling around a tooth, the problem may be deep inside the tooth. Many patients fear root canal treatment, often because of stories they have heard.

In reality, a root canal is a pain-relieving treatment, not a painful one.

At OmaBod Dental Clinic in Accra, we perform root canal treatment to remove infection, stop pain, and save your natural tooth.

What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment is used to treat infection or damage inside the tooth, specifically in the pulp where nerves and blood vessels are located.

The procedure:

  • Removes infected tissue
  • Cleans and disinfects the tooth
  • Seals the tooth to prevent reinfection

This allows the tooth to remain in place and function normally.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal

You may need root canal treatment if you experience:

  • Severe toothache, especially when chewing
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
  • Swelling of the gums or face
  • Darkening of the tooth
  • Pus or abscess near the tooth
  • Pain that wakes you up at night

Some infections cause little pain at first, so early evaluation is important.

What Happens During Root Canal Treatment?

Your appointment may include:

  • Examination and X-rays
  • Local anesthesia to numb the area
  • Removal of infected pulp
  • Cleaning and shaping of the root canals
  • Sealing the tooth to prevent infection
  • Placement of a filling or crown if needed

The process is done carefully to ensure comfort and effectiveness.

Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?

Modern root canal treatment is comfortable and pain-free with anesthesia. Most patients feel relief from pain after the procedure.

Any mild discomfort afterward is temporary and manageable.

Why Saving the Tooth Matters

Keeping your natural tooth helps:

  • Maintain proper chewing
  • Prevent shifting of nearby teeth
  • Preserve jawbone structure
  • Avoid the need for extraction and replacement

A root canal allows you to keep your tooth rather than remove it.

What Happens After a Root Canal?

After treatment:

  • A dental crown is often recommended to protect the tooth
  • Normal chewing function returns
  • Pain and infection resolve
  • Regular dental care helps maintain results

We guide you on proper care after the procedure.

Root Canal Treatment for Adults and Children

Root canals are common in adults but may also be needed in older children with deep tooth decay or trauma.

Each case is evaluated individually.
