Root Canal Treatment in Litomyšl

Painless and precise endodontic care at Nova Smile Dental Clinic

What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment, or endodontic therapy, involves carefully removing the infected or inflamed pulp from the inside of the tooth. The canals are then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent reinfection. This treatment allows the tooth to remain in place and function normally without pain.

Severe toothache, swelling, or sensitivity to hot and cold may indicate inflammation or infection of the tooth pulp — the inner tissue that contains nerves and blood vessels. In such cases, root canal treatment is often the only way to save the tooth. At Nova Smile Dental Clinic in Litomyšl, we perform this procedure using advanced equipment and under local anesthesia, making it completely painless and highly effective.

Our patients from Litomyšl, Svitavy, and the surrounding areas trust us to preserve their natural teeth and relieve dental pain with care and precision.

We recommend root canal therapy when:

  • The pulp is infected due to deep decay

  • A tooth is cracked or broken

  • There is a dental abscess (pocket of pus) at the root

  • There is lingering pain or sensitivity

How does the procedure work?

At Nova Smile, a dental clinic in Litomyšl, root canal treatment usually takes one to two visits, depending on the complexity.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Examination and X-ray – We assess the root canals and surrounding bone

  • Anesthesia – Local anesthesia ensures a completely painless procedure

  • Cleaning – The pulp is removed, and the canals are cleaned and shaped

  • Filling the canals – We use high-quality materials (like gutta-percha) to seal the canals

  • Final restoration – A tooth-colored filling or crown is placed to restore function and appearance

We use modern tools such as apex locators and digital imaging to ensure accuracy and success.

What happens after the treatment?

After treatment, the tooth may feel slightly sensitive for a few days, but the pain from the infection will be gone. With proper care, a root canal-treated tooth can last as long as a healthy one.

We usually recommend placing a crown after root canal treatment to protect the tooth from cracking, especially in molars.
