Description

Single-sitting root canal treatment is a procedure in which the entire root canal therapy—cleaning, shaping, disinfecting, and sealing the tooth—is completed in one appointment. It is commonly chosen when the tooth shows no severe infection or swelling and can be safely treated in a single visit. This approach reduces the number of dental appointments, minimizes discomfort between visits, and lowers the risk of reinfection. When performed with modern rotary instruments and advanced disinfection techniques, single-sitting root canals are efficient, effective, and offer quick relief from pain while preserving the natural tooth.
