Root Canal Treatment

At Dent Ümitköy, root canal treatment (endodontics) is performed by Dt. Songül Mirzaoğlu and her team using modern anesthesia techniques and digital imaging support. We welcome patients from Ankara, Çankaya, Ümitköy, Çayyolu and İncek.

What Is Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)?

Root canal treatment (endodontics) is performed when the blood vessel and nerve tissue (pulp) inside a tooth becomes inflamed or loses vitality due to deep decay, trauma or repeated fillings. The goal is to preserve the tooth's function without extracting it.

Signs That May Require Root Canal Treatment

• Severe pain that worsens at night
• Prolonged sensitivity to hot and cold
• Gum swelling or abscess
• Darkening of the tooth

Early diagnosis makes treatment easier and prevents tooth loss.

Treatment Process

During treatment, local anesthesia is applied, the infected pulp tissue is removed with specialized instruments, and the root canals are disinfected and filled with a biocompatible material. The procedure is usually completed in 1-2 sessions and is performed comfortably with modern techniques.

After Treatment

Because root-canal-treated teeth become more brittle, they are usually reinforced with a crown or veneer. A properly performed root canal treatment allows the tooth to be used without problems for many years.
