Single Sitting Root Canal Treatment (RCT). The naturally occurring space within the root of a tooth is called Root Canal. It consists of the pulp chamber, the main canal and detailed anatomical branches thIn the past, dentists always broke root canal therapy into two (or more) appointments.

In the 1990's the single-appointment approach began to gain wide-spread acceptance, in part because advancements in technology made it possible to complete a patient's work in a single sitting without compromising treatment quality.
Advantages.
For the patient, the obvious benefit is that all of their treatment is completed in a single sitting. Although, with multi-rooted teeth that visit might be fairly extended, possibly as long as 90 minutes.at connect the root canals to each other or to the surface of the root.

6. PROCEDURE

7. In our clinic we have the best equipments for a successful endodontic treatment some are the apex locator, endo activator, system B obturation system, 12 types of endo files , rotary endo, touch ‘n’ heat system which further help in accomplishing root canal treatment in less time.

8. Advantages of single sitting root canal treatment are as follows: The main advantage is that you don’t have to take out time for multiple sittings rather the treatment can be completed in a single day itself. There is no difference in the treatment cost of single sitting root canal when compared with multiple sitting. The other advantage is that single sitting root canal prevents bacterial regrowth in root canal which would lead to contamination if the treatment period is prolonged.

9. It also eliminates the chances of flare ups caused by leakage or loss of temporary seal The best part is that patient will not be injected with the local anaesthesia again and again. Single sitting appointments are more comfortable to the patient and saves time.

10. Now for a successful endodontic treatment complete removal of the necrotic Pulpal tissue and microorganisms should be achieved. For this the accurate length of the root canals are determined which is achieved with apex locators and is used routinely in our clinic.

12. Single sitting root canal treatments are not limited to a group of teeth but can be performed in teeth with swelling and pus discharge also and that too without any pain.

13. With the help of rotary endodontics proper cleaning of the necrotic pulp is done and then shaping of the root canals is done within no time.

14. After that irrigation is essential to completely clean the canals with remaining debris. Endoactivators helps in complete irrigation of the root canals by vigorously energizing the Intracanal irrigants during endodontic treatment . It also disrupts the smear layer and biofilm formed which is not achieved by any other equipment.

16. Then the canals have to be obturated with gutta percha cones to fill up the dead space and keep the canals free from infection or contamination. In our clinic we have S ystem B obturation system which is the latest one.
