Treatment Details

Root Canal Surgery is also known as endodontics. It’s a dental treatment for inflamed, infected, or dead pulp. It has to be performed by an experienced dentist so that there won’t be any damage to teeth, gums, or nerves. Dental pulp is a soft substance consisting of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue in the dental center. 

During a typical root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed, and the internal part of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. Without treatment, the surrounding tissue of the female becomes infected, and abscesses may form. A spot is a pus-filled pocket formed at the ends of the tooth roots. 

Most root canal treatments involve at least two visits to the dentist. Once the problem is fully detected and measured by a detailed x-ray, the infected nerve tissue is removed in the first appointment. The area is covered with a topical antibiotic. This usually relieves pain in the tooth. In the second visit, the root canal is cleaned, disinfected, shaped, measured, and filled to prevent recurrent infection.

How Is Root Canal Performed

This treatment is customized to suit every patient’s unique needs. So it can never be performed in the same way. But, here are some of the stages you should expect when you choose to have this procedure: 

Diagnosis

The diagnosis makes it possible for your dentist to identify the cause of the problem. This is why you will have to go through an X-ray scan first before any procedure commences. The X-ray results will help your dentist make informed decisions on how to treat the infection.

Taking the anesthesia

When everything is set and you’re at the clinic ready for the treatment, your dentist will give you local anesthesia. This is done so that you don’t feel any pain or discomfort during treatment. This anesthesia is provided in the form of 3 injections that will numb the tooth and the surrounding gum completely.

Opening the tooth

Once your tooth is anesthetized, the dentist will use a small dental drill to open a small hole in the affected tooth. This small hole will give your dentist access to the inner structure of the tooth.

Removing the nerve and pulp

With access to the tooth’s inner structure, your dentist will begin to remove the nerve and pulp. Special tools are used to remove the nerve and pulp. When the infection is completely removed, the dentist will apply special meds to heal the treated area. He/she will also put a temporary filling on the treated tooth.

Finishing the treatment

When your dentist is satisfied that the meds have gone into effect, the temporary filling is removed and is replaced by a permanent one –and if necessary, a crown is placed.

Aftercare

Most patients are satisfied with the procedure’s outcome, and they often say that they never experience any problems with the treated tooth ever again. But there are instances where the treatment can fail, and in such cases, your dentist can recommend that you have alternative treatments.

Root Canal Recovery Timeline

After the Root Canal treatment, you should expect numbness all over your mouth. Dentists advise that you should not eat anything when feeling this numbness. You should also expect your teeth to feel very sensitive due to tissue inflammation. This usually happens when there was pain or infection before the procedure.
