With the development of improved technologies in the field of endodontics, multiple visits for root canal treatment have given way to single visits, saving the patient and the dentist time and money.

Why is Single-Visit RCT recommended?

Typically, single-visit RCT is recommended for the following reasons:

  • Important teeth that aren't difficult and simply have a surface infection.
  • Specially abled patients who are unable to bear multiple visits.
  • As part of an extensive oral rehabilitation regimen.
  • Front teeth that need immediate prosthetic restoration for cosmetic reasons due to fracture.

Who can perform Single-Visit RCT?

An endodontist (also known as a root canal dentist) and a general dentist possess a high level of expertise in conducting root canal treatments.

The single-visit RCT is a straightforward process that takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete. One to two weeks after the procedure, the patient fully recovers. Reach out to the dental doctor near you to know about the time required for the procedure and recovery.

How is Single-Visit RCT conducted?

Single-visit RCT is conducted in the following steps:

  1. Firstly the patient is given anasthesia.
  2. After this, an opening or hole is made using a crown through a pulp chamber.
  3. Next, the length of the root canals is measured.
  4. Then, the unhealthy pulp is removed.
  5. After this, canals are shaped, cleaned, and expanded.
  6. Next, canals are filled and sealed with a temporary filling.
  7. For structural support or to hold back restoration materials, a metal post may be installed.

What are the benefits of Single-Visit RCT?

The benefits of single-visit RCT are:

  1. Patients are saved from pain and discomfort that typically occurs in multiple visits.
  2. Patients who are worried about aesthetics can receive an immediate temporary prosthetic crown after a single visit for a root canal.
  3. In a single visit root canal, there are no chances of flare-ups mid-treatment.
