Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is required for two main reasons. The first is an infection. The second reason for a root canal is damage to the pulp that can’t be fixed. An untreated cavity is a common cause of pulp infection. The decay erodes the enamel and dentin of the tooth until it reaches a root canal. This allows bacteria to infect the pulp. Antibiotics can’t get to infections inside teeth. The inflammation caused by the infection reduces the blood supply to the tooth. The reduced blood supply also keeps the pulp from healing.


SAVING YOUR TEETH WITH ROOT CANAL TREATMENT


Your tooth might need a root canal if:-

  • • It hurts when you bite down on it, touch it or push on it.

  • • It is sensitive to heat.

  • • It is sensitive to cold for more than a couple of seconds.

  • • There is swelling near the tooth.

  • • It is discoloured (whether it hurts or not).

  • • It is broken.

First, your dentist of Root Canal treatment in Bokaro will create an opening in your tooth and removes any fillings and decay. Then your dentist removes unhealthy pulp with tiny, flexible, files. Utilizing delicate, up-and-down motions, your dentist gently cleans and smoothers your canals to prepare them for the canal-filling materials.

After the pulp has been removed from your root canals and they have been smoothened, your root canals will be filled. Your dentist may fill the canals with tiny cone-shaped pieces of gutta-percha, a firm, rubber-like material, or use another dental materiall. A sealer cement is used to seal the filling material into place.

After the inside of your tooth has been treated, the outside will be restored. To protect your tooth’s underlying structures and give your tooth a healthy appearance, and if your tooth needs extra support, your dentist may remove some gutta-percha and insert a post before the filling and crown are applied.

A post, stainless steel or another metal, is sometimes cemented into your root canal to build up your tooth after root canal therapy.

A filling, usually silver or a tooth-coloured dental material, may be used to fill the opening in the top of your tooth.

A crown, usually gold or porcelain, may be used to cover a tooth that has a large opening after root canal therapy.
