Here are some key aspects of root canal treatment:

Diagnosis

The dentist will perform a thorough examination, including dental X-rays, to determine the extent of the damage or infection in the tooth. Common signs that a root canal may be needed include severe tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling or abscess around the tooth, and discoloration of the tooth.

Local anesthesia

The dentist will perform a thorough examination, including dental X-rays, to determine the extent of the damage or infection in the tooth. Common signs that a root canal may be needed include severe tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling or abscess around the tooth, and discoloration of the tooth.

Pulp removal:

The dentist will make a small access hole in the tooth to reach the pulp and carefully remove it using specialized dental instruments. This includes removing the infected or inflamed pulp and cleaning the root canals to remove bacteria and debris.

Root canal filling:

Once the pulp is removed and the root canals are cleaned, the dentist will fill them with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha, and seal the access hole with a temporary or permanent filling.

Crown or restoration:

In most cases, a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment may require a dental crown or other restoration to protect and strengthen it, as the tooth may become more brittle after the pulp is removed.

Follow-up care:

After the root canal treatment, it’s important to follow any post-operative instructions provided by the dentist, including proper oral hygiene practices and any prescribed medications.

Root Canal Treatment -

Root canal treatment is generally a successful procedure that can save a severely damaged or infected tooth and prevent the need for extraction. It is important to consult with a qualified dentist or endodontist if you are experiencing severe tooth pain or other signs of tooth infection to determine if root canal treatment is necessary.

Frequently Ask Questions (FAQ) -

Do you have questions about our Root canal treatment? We’re here to help! Check out the answers to some of most frequently asked questions.

What is a root canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure that involves removing the infected or damaged pulp inside a tooth. The pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. The tooth is then cleaned, disinfected, filled, and sealed to prevent further infection.

Why is a root canal necessary?

Root canals are necessary when the pulp inside a tooth becomes infected or damaged. This can occur due to deep tooth decay, trauma to the tooth, cracks or chips in the tooth, or repeated dental procedures. If left untreated, the infection can spread, causing severe pain, abscesses, and potential tooth loss.

How can I tell if I need a root canal?

Common signs that you may need a root canal include persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, swelling and tenderness around the gums, a pimple-like bump on the gums, or discoloration of the tooth. However, only a dental professional can accurately determine if a root canal is necessary through a thorough examination and X-rays.

Is a root canal painful?

Modern root canal procedures are typically performed under local anesthesia, so you shouldn't feel any pain during the procedure. However, it's common to experience some discomfort or soreness afterward as the area heals. Your dentist can prescribe pain medication or recommend over-the-counter pain relievers to manage any post-treatment discomfort.

How long does a root canal procedure take?

The duration of a root canal procedure can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the tooth being treated. Generally, a root canal can be completed in one to three appointments, each lasting about 60 to 90 minutes. Some cases may require additional visits if there are complications or the infection is severe.

What happens after a root canal?

After a root canal, you may experience some sensitivity and discomfort for a few days. Your dentist may prescribe antibiotics if there was an infection, and they will likely recommend avoiding hard or chewy foods during the healing process. A dental crown or filling may be placed over the treated tooth to protect and restore its functionality.

Are there any alternatives to a root canal?

In some cases, an alternative to a root canal may be tooth extraction followed by a dental implant or a bridge. However, preserving your natural tooth with a root canal is generally considered the best option whenever possible, as it maintains the structure of your jawbone and avoids potential complications associated with tooth loss.
