Painless root canal treatment and safe tooth extractions at Ossom Aesthetic Clinic, Basaveshwar Nagar — modern protocols designed to preserve your natural smile.
From infected teeth that need saving to damaged teeth requiring careful removal, every case at Ossom is planned with a tooth-preservation-first approach.
Advanced rotary endodontics, atraumatic extraction techniques and high-quality crown restorations — all under one roof at Basaveshwar Nagar.
Advanced rotary endodontic files clean and shape the root canal faster and more precisely than traditional methods. Infected pulp is removed, canals are disinfected and sealed.
Precision extraction techniques that minimise bone and soft-tissue trauma during removal. This approach speeds up healing and preserves the socket for a future implant.
A root-treated tooth needs a crown to restore full biting strength and seal it from re-infection. We offer Zirconia and E-max ceramic crowns that match your natural tooth colour.
A structured, clinical pathway to effectively eliminate pain and restore function.
We take digital X-rays to assess the extent of decay, infection, or damage. Based on this, we determine if the tooth can be saved with an RCT or requires extraction.
Local anaesthesia is administered to ensure the area is completely numb. We prioritise a comfortable, stress-free environment before any treatment begins.
For an RCT, the infected pulp is removed, and the canals are cleaned and sealed. For an extraction, the tooth is gently removed using atraumatic techniques to protect the surrounding bone.
After an RCT, a custom crown is fitted to protect the tooth. After an extraction, we provide clear post-op instructions to ensure rapid healing and discuss options for replacing the missing tooth.
We exhaust every option to save your natural tooth before considering extraction. Our specialists use rotary systems to achieve outcomes that are faster, cleaner and more comfortable.

Understanding the difference helps you have an informed discussion with your dentist about the right option for your specific case.
| Aspect | Root Canal Treatment | Tooth Extraction |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Save the natural tooth by removing infection and sealing the canals. | Remove a tooth that is too damaged or infected to be saved. |
| Best suited for | Infected pulp, abscess, severe decay (tooth structure still intact). | Severely fractured teeth, impacted wisdom teeth, non-restorable teeth. |
| Procedure time | 45–90 minutes depending on the number of canals. | 20–45 minutes for most cases including anaesthesia. |
| Recovery | Mild soreness 1–3 days; normal function after crown placement. | Soft diet for 3–5 days; socket heals in 1–2 weeks. |
| Follow-up required? | Yes — a crown is essential after RCT to protect the tooth. | Optional — implant, bridge or denture may be planned for replacement. |
Our dentists will always recommend root canal treatment to save your tooth wherever possible. Extraction is offered only when the tooth structure is too compromised.
Root Canal Treatment is a dental procedure used to save a badly infected or damaged tooth. When tooth decay, cracks, injury, or deep infection reaches the inner pulp of the tooth, it can cause severe pain, swelling, sensitivity, or pus formation. During root canal treatment, the infected pulp is removed, the tooth canals are cleaned and disinfected, and the tooth is sealed to prevent further infection. At Ossom Aesthetic Clinic, Root Canal Treatment is planned to relieve pain, preserve the natural tooth, and restore normal chewing comfort. It is commonly recommended that the tooth can still be saved instead of removing it.
If you are experiencing continuous tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold food, swelling near the gums, pain while chewing, or a darkened tooth, you may need a dental consultation. A dentist will examine the affected tooth and may suggest an X-ray to understand the depth of infection.
RCT treatment usually involves cleaning the infected canals inside the tooth and filling them with a safe dental material. After the root canal is completed, a dental crown may be advised to protect the treated tooth and improve strength. This helps restore tooth function and reduces the chance of fracture in the future.
Root canal treatment is a preferred option when the tooth structure can be preserved. It helps avoid unnecessary tooth loss and supports long-term oral health.
In some cases, the tooth may be too damaged to save. Teeth extraction may be recommended when there is severe decay, advanced gum disease, major fracture, impacted wisdom tooth, or infection that cannot be treated with root canal therapy.
The decision between Root Canal Treatment and teeth extraction depends on the tooth condition, infection level, bone support, pain symptoms, and overall oral health. At Ossom Aesthetic Clinic, the dentist evaluates your case carefully and suggests the most suitable treatment option.
If you are looking for Root Canal Treatment, Root Canal in Bangalore, RCT treatment, or teeth extraction, Ossom Aesthetic Clinic offers dentist-led care focused on pain relief, tooth preservation, and safe dental treatment.
Root canal treatment is usually done under local anesthesia, so the procedure is generally comfortable. Mild soreness may occur after treatment.
RCT treatment may be needed if you have deep tooth decay, severe pain, swelling, sensitivity, or tooth infection.
Root canals are preferred when the natural tooth can be saved. Extraction is suggested only when the tooth is too damaged or infected to restore.
In many cases, a crown is recommended after root canal treatment to protect the tooth and restore chewing strength.
No. With modern anaesthesia and advanced rotary techniques, a root canal is no more uncomfortable than a routine filling. Most patients are surprised at how pain-free the experience is. Any mild soreness after the session is easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
A root canal saves the tooth but removes the living pulp, making the tooth more brittle over time. A crown is essential to restore full biting strength, protect the tooth from fracture under chewing forces, and seal the canals from re-infection.
Most extractions — including straightforward wisdom tooth removal — are completed in a single session at Ossom. Surgical extractions for impacted or deeply embedded teeth may involve a follow-up review, but the extraction itself is done in one visit.
In the majority of cases, yes. Our dentists always assess whether the tooth can be preserved before recommending extraction. Extraction is considered only when the remaining tooth structure is too compromised to support a crown, or when the infection has caused severe bone loss around the roots.
Book your root canal or extraction consultation at OSSOM. The sooner we see you, the better we can protect your natural tooth.
