Understanding Root Canal Treatment and Its Necessity
Root canal treatment is needed when the pulp inside your tooth becomes infected or inflamed. This can result from deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or injury. The procedure involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inner chamber, and then filling and sealing it to prevent further infection.
The Root Canal Treatment Process
The procedure starts with numbing the affected tooth. We then make an opening in the crown of the tooth to access the pulp chamber. The infected pulp is removed, and the chamber is thoroughly cleaned and shaped. Finally, it's filled and sealed. A follow-up restoration, such as a crown, may be needed to protect and restore the tooth to full function.
Recovery and Aftercare Following Root Canal Treatment
Post-treatment, you may experience some sensitivity, which is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. It's important to follow good oral hygiene practices and avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it's fully restored. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
Debunking Myths About Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy has a reputation for being painful, but with modern techniques and anesthesia, it's typically no more uncomfortable than having a filling. Our team is committed to providing a pain-free experience and dispelling any concerns you may have about the treatment.
