Root Canal Therapy

Root canal

Root canal therapy is a procedure to replace the infected pulp in a root canal with a non-reactive substance. If your tooth's pulp tissue (nerve chamber) becomes infected by decay, or damaged by injury, root canal treatment is often the only way to save your tooth.

When to go for a root canal therapy?
  1. You experience discomfort and/or swelling
  2. Your dentist finds an infected pulp
Treatment in Thorough Dental involves 3 stages
  1. The dentist removes the damaged or infected pulp and clean the canals
  2. Treat the canals with special filler which will probably last a lifetime.
  3. Restore the tooth with composite filling materials. If there is severe infection, dentist may fill with temp material and do the permanent filling in the second trearment
Root Canal
Delaying root canal therapy may cause following problems
  1. The gum and bone around the tooth may become infected and painful
  2. Gumboil may appear
  3. May loose the natural tooth

If your tooth's pulp tissue (nerve chamber) becomes infected by decay, or damaged by injury, root canal treatment is often the only way to save your tooth. In a root canal, the dentist removes the damaged or infected pulp tissue and replaces it with special filler which will probably last a lifetime. However you may need a new filling or a cap on the tooth. Without root canal treatment, the gum and bone around the tooth may become infected and a painful gumboil may form.
