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.
