Understanding Root Canal Treatment

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the center of a tooth (the root canal system). It's often required when the nerve of a tooth becomes infected or the pulp becomes damaged. This treatment can save a tooth that might otherwise need to be removed completely, preserving your natural smile and preventing further oral health issues.

What Does Root Canal Treatment Involve?

  1. Diagnosis: The first step involves thorough examination and X-rays to determine the extent of the infection.
  2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure the procedure is pain-free.
  3. Pulp Removal: An opening is made in the crown of the tooth, and the infected pulp is removed.
  4. Cleaning and Shaping: The root canal is cleaned and shaped in preparation for filling.
  5. Filling the Canal: The cleaned canal is filled with a biocompatible material and sealed.
  6. Restoration: A crown or filling is then placed on the tooth to restore its shape and functionality.

Benefits of Root Canal Treatment:

  • Pain Relief: Effectively removes the pain caused by pulp infection.
  • Tooth Preservation: Allows for the saving of a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.
  • Prevents Spread of Infection: By treating the infection, root canal therapy prevents it from spreading to other teeth.
  • Restores Normal Tooth Function: After a root canal, the tooth can function normally without the pain of infection.
