Why would I need
a Root Canal
Treatment?
Endodontic treatment
is necessary when
the pulp, the
soft tissue inside
the root canal,
becomes inflamed
or infected.
The inflammation
or infection can
have a variety of
causes:
Deep decay
Repeated dental
procedures on the
tooth
Crack or chip in the
tooth
An injury to a tooth
If pulp inflammation
or infection is left
untreated, it can
cause pain or lead
to an abscess.
What are the signs
of needing Root
Canal Treatment?
Signs to look
for include
pain, prolonged
sensitivity to heat
or cold, tenderness to
touch and chewing,
and discoloration of
the tooth. Sometimes,
however, there are no
symptoms.
How does Root Canal
Treatment save the
tooth?
The endodontist
removes the inflamed or
infected pulp, carefully
cleans and shapes the
inside of the canal, then
fills and seals the space.
Afterwards, we will
place a crown or other
restoration on the tooth
to protect and restore
it to full function. After
restoration, the tooth
continues to function
like any other tooth.
Salient Features of
Automated Root Canal
Treatment:
Single Visit
Less treatment time
Less discomfort
Better result than
Manual RCT
No difference in
treatment cost.
Though the number of
visits for the root canal
treatment is decided by
the clinical condition
of the particular tooth
involved, more than
90% of the cases can
be done in single visit
using Automated RCT.
Automation makes it
possible to complete
the treatment in
amazingly less time
when compared to
manual RCT and
also provides an
excellent outcome
and less discomfort
post operatively.
How It Works:
Specially designed
Nickel Titanium
instruments are
used instead of
conventional hand
instruments made
of stainless Steel.
These instruments
clean the root canal
completely without
damaging the roots.
A d v a n t a g e …
Automation
Automated root
canal treatment
is a boon for old
people who prefer
a safe and quicker
treatment. Though
the instruments are
imported, the cost of the
automated RCT is the
same as that of manual
RCT.

M. Seethalakshmi,
resident of 44/21,
Bagirathi Ammal Street,
T. Nagar passed away
on Dec. 1. She was
82, and had been a
long time resident of T.
Nagar. She was the wife
of veteran actor and
stage artiste “Nataka
Kavalar” R. S. Manohar
who passed away in
2006.
Seldom a conscious
tribute is reverentially
paid to the “better
half” of a Celebrity but
late Seethalakshmi
genuinely deserves it
for her pivotal role in
lively executing the true
famous saying “Behind
the success of every
man there is indeed
a woman”. RSM had
always acknowledged
in public with humility
that but for his
dedicated wife’s cooking
timely serving food he
could not have kept up
brisk with robust health
simultaneously with his
hectic schedule of both
film shootings theatre
acting.
The divine couple
celebrated their Silver
Jubilee Wedding
Anniversary day, 61st,
71st, Golden Jubilee
Wedding Anniversary
Day, 81st Birth
Anniversary. As we
hail from a very highly
orthodox Brahmin
family, Seethalakshmi
used to keep everything
ready for RSM’s daily
Sandhyavandhanam,
Maadhyanikam, etc.
Seethalakshmi, an
alumnus of Queen
Mary’sCollege,managed
her husband’s finances
and investments. She
also managed their
farms in Kalpaakkam,
Siriseri and Yercaud.
Seethalakshmi was
instrumental in and
actively took part in
the renovation of the
badly dilapidated
Kothandaramar Temple
(West Mambalam) and a
couple of other temples
in her husband’s
village. After the death
of Manohar, she took
charge of the temple
maintenance till her
death.
She was one of the
most precious few who
took great pleasure
and felt privileged to
look after her father-
in-law R. Subramaniya
Aiyer as her own father
for 2 decades till his
demise her mother-
in-law Rajalakshmi
Ammal as her own
mother although she
was highly orthodox
strict disciplinarian as
her own mother from
1950 till her demise
in 1998 for 48 years
although her MIL
had four sons two
daughters in all.
