When tooth decay reaches the soft inner nerve of a milk tooth, it causes pain and infection. A pulpotomy removes the infected nerve tissue from the crown. A pulpectomy cleans the entire root canal. Both save the tooth instead of removing it.
This treatment is specifically designed for children whose milk teeth are infected but still worth saving.
We take an X-ray to assess the infection, then apply a local anaesthetic so your child feels absolutely no pain before we begin.
We carefully remove the infected nerve tissue from inside the tooth, clean the area thoroughly, and place a medicated filling to heal the root.
We seal the tooth and place a durable stainless steel crown over it, fully restoring its strength so your child can eat and smile normally.
Our team is trained to keep children calm, comfortable, and surprisingly at ease throughout every appointment.
We use digital X-rays to accurately assess infection depth before recommending any treatment – no guesswork, ever.
Families across Moula Ali and Hyderabad rely on Unique Dental for honest, affordable, and gentle children’s dental care.
The treatment does the hard work – but good after-care at home ensures the tooth heals well and stays strong. Here’s what to do:
We know bringing a scared child to the dentist takes courage – for both of you. At Unique Dental, we promise to treat your child with the same gentleness and patience we would want for our own. Every decision we make is guided by what is truly best for your child’s long-term dental health, not what is quickest or easiest.
Will my child feel pain during the procedure?
No. Before we begin, we apply a local anaesthetic to completely numb the area. Your child may feel a tiny pinch during the injection, but the procedure itself is painless. Most children are surprised by how comfortable it actually is.
How much does a pulpotomy or pulpectomy cost in Hyderabad?
The cost varies depending on which tooth is affected, the severity of the infection, and whether a crown is needed. At Unique Dental, we keep our pricing fair and transparent with no hidden fees. We’d love to give you an accurate estimate – simply call us or send a WhatsApp message to book a quick consultation.
Why not just extract the milk tooth instead?
It’s a fair question. The truth is, milk teeth act as natural space-holders for adult teeth. Removing them too early can cause neighbouring teeth to shift, leading to crowding and alignment problems that may require braces later. Saving the tooth, whenever possible, is almost always the better long-term choice.
How will I know if my child needs a pulpotomy or a pulpectomy?
That’s exactly what our X-ray and examination will determine. A pulpotomy is used when the infection is limited to the upper portion of the nerve. A pulpectomy is needed when the infection has spread deeper into the root. We’ll explain our findings clearly and in plain language before recommending anything.
Don’t let an infected tooth affect your child’s eating, sleep, or confidence any longer. Book an appointment at Unique Dental in Moula Ali by calling us directly or sending us a quick WhatsApp message – we’ll take it from there.
