Why Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy becomes necessary when the pulp, the innermost layer of your tooth, becomes infected or damaged. This can occur due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the same tooth, or a traumatic injury.
How is it Done?
Diagnosis: Your dentist will conduct a thorough examination and might use X-rays to identify the extent of the damage.
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure.
Pulp Removal: The infected pulp is carefully removed, and the inner chamber is cleaned and disinfected.
Filling: The now-cleaned space is filled with a biocompatible material, and the tooth is sealed.
Restoration: A crown or filling is placed on the tooth to restore its functionality and protect it from further damage.
Post-Care Tips:
Manage Discomfort: It’s normal to experience some discomfort after the procedure. Over-the-counter pain relievers can help, as prescribed by your dentist.
Oral Hygiene: Maintain rigorous oral hygiene practices. Brush and floss regularly to prevent any potential reinfection.
Follow-Up Appointments: Attend follow-up appointments as scheduled to ensure the tooth is healing properly.
