Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontics, becomes necessary when the inner pulp of a tooth, containing nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected due to decay or injury. Initially, you may not experience any pain, but as the infection progresses, the tooth may darken in color, indicating nerve damage. At this stage, a root canal treatment is recommended to remove the infected pulp and nerve, clean the canals, and fill the tooth with fillings. Finally, a crown is placed to restore the tooth's function and protect it from further damage or bacterial infection.
Ensuring proper sterilization of instruments and precise filling and sealing of canals is crucial post-treatment to prevent bacterial development. There is no age restriction for root canal treatment, but delaying it can lead to decay or bacterial infections, potentially resulting in a dental abscess requiring immediate medical attention.
Root canal treatment offers several advantages, including preventing infection spread, saving the tooth, promoting jawbone regeneration, and enhancing overall oral health. However, there are some drawbacks, such as potential tooth discoloration due to incomplete cleaning, residual pulp, or fracture risk under extreme pressure.
Recovery from root canal treatment is typically swift, with minor discomfort and pain immediately following the procedure. Dentists employ local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort during treatment, minimizing any perceived pain or discomfort. With proper care and regular check-ups, patients can expect to resume normal activities within a week, enjoying restored oral health and functionality.
