Description
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic treatment, is a dental procedure that is used to treat problems that occur within the tooth pulp or the root canal. In Whitefield, this procedure is commonly used to treat tooth decay, infection, and trauma. The root canal is the area within the tooth that contains nerve tissue, blood vessels, and connective tissue, and when this area becomes infected or damaged, it can cause severe pain and discomfort.
During a root canal treatment, the dentist will first numb the area around the tooth to ensure that the patient is comfortable during the procedure. Then, a small hole is drilled into the tooth, providing access to the root canal. The dentist will then remove the infected or damaged tissue from the root canal using specialized tools and instruments. Once the root canal has been cleared of all infected tissue, the dentist will fill it with a biocompatible material and seal the tooth with a filling or crown.
The root canal treatment is a highly effective way to save a damaged or infected tooth from extraction. It can also prevent the spread of infection to other teeth, gums, or jawbone. After the procedure, the patient may experience some discomfort or sensitivity, which can be managed with painkillers and by avoiding hard, crunchy, or chewy foods.
In conclusion, if you are experiencing teeth pain or discomfort, it is important to consult a dental professional. We can provide a thorough examination and recommend the appropriate treatment, which may include root canal treatment to save your tooth and improve your oral health.
