Toothache can have several causes, so not every painful tooth requires root canal treatment.
However, when the pulp inside a tooth becomes severely inflamed or infected and is unable to recover, root canal treatment may be recommended to preserve the tooth.
At AVMSmiles Thoraipakkam, your dentist first evaluates the tooth and takes the necessary X-rays. The diagnosis considers the tooth itself as well as the surrounding gums and bone.
During root canal treatment, the infected or inflamed pulp is removed. Very small instruments are used to clean and shape the internal root canal system.
The canals are disinfected and subsequently sealed. This addresses the internal infection while maintaining the external structure of the tooth where possible.
After completing root canal therapy, the tooth requires an appropriate restoration. Back teeth frequently require additional protection because of the forces they experience during chewing.
The final restoration therefore forms an important part of the overall treatment rather than being considered separate from the root canal itself.
Early assessment of persistent dental pain can make treatment planning easier and may increase the possibility of retaining the natural tooth.
If you have recurring pain, swelling, prolonged sensitivity or pain when biting, consider arranging a dental examination.
