What is a root canal treatment?

A root canal treatment can save the teeth.

The root canal is a part of the tooth that cannot be seen from the outside, it contains nerves and blood vessels. If the nerve tissue has become infected or damaged, a root canal is performed to remove the diseased pulp.

This dental procedure involves root canal cleaning, shaping, and root canal filling. Root canal treatment is one of the most common dental procedures performed.

Why do you need a root canal treatment?

Root canal tooth pain can be acute or chronic in nature. It can be caused by a variety of reasons such as swelling or infection in or around the root canal itself. Dentists use root canal treatment to save the tooth and to avoid unnecessary extractions.

Who performs this procedure?

You won’t believe how much easier root canal treatment can be when performed by an Endodontist. An Endodontist is a root canal specialist, who is trained in treating the inside of the teeth, especially the pulp. Our endodontist has the experience to achieve the most regeneration of tooth roots.

Endodontist at Dental Mansion uses surgical microscope during treatment that provides an exceptional view of the tooth. It magnifies the tooth to approximately x16. When using the dental microscope even minute detail inside the tooth is clear. The microscope is equipped with the light source. It illuminates the interior of the tooth and helps with the close inspection of the root canal.

It also has a digital camera that captures quality images for further review or distribution.

What are the benefits of this treatment?

Root canal treatment can save you from replacing your teeth and help prevent them from developing with even greater problems in the future. Once done the patient can expect several months of pain-free use of their restored tooth.

The root cause of the root canal treatment?

The main cause of most of the dental problems is failure in maintaining an oral hygiene. It often leads to tooth decay, cavity or infection. It also leads to perforation in the jaw that go through into the tooth pulp.

Root canal post and core

Often, a dental crown won’t fit over a tooth that’s had tissue removed due to decay or trauma. Thus, to save the tooth from additional damage and preserve the remaining healthy tissue, the root canal dentist will often remove the damaged tissue and replace it with an artificial “post,” which holds an artificial “core” in place. They are made of stainless steel, silver-plated copper, fibre and have many functions.

A post and core can prevent, and in some cases correct, shifting of teeth caused by the loss of tooth structure. With the post and core process, the patient’s tooth will look as good as new.
