What is ROOT CANAL?
The space within the root of a tooth is known as the root canal. This naturally occurring space within the tooth remains within the coronal part and consists of the pulp chamber, the main canals. More branches and sub-branches can form a network of root canals with other teeth or to the root’s surface.
What Happens And Why It Becomes Necessary?
- Causes: the reasons for tooth decay followed by nerve and pulp damage can vary. They can be a result of facial trauma, an accident, or poor oral hygiene as well. The decayed tooth opens up the cavity to the pulp and nerves lying underneath. They then become susceptible to damage and infections.
- Symptoms: severe tooth ache, which gets relieved by cold water and increases with hot water intake. The pain seems to reduce in upright position and increases when lying. Swelling is accompanied with a continuous pain. Teeth become sensitive and the pain maybe referred to the head and ears as well. These are the subjective symptoms and the objective ones are decided by the experts through tests.
- The need: if not treated infections from the pulp or damaged nerves can pose serious problems and lead to complications. Bacterial growth and decomposition of oral tissue can lead to serious diseases in future.
The Procedure:
Dr. Kezian describes the process to be extremely painless, when performed by experts. He opines that the root canal procedure is in order to preserve the infected tooth and keep your natural denture intact.
- The process involves removal of the infected pulp, after identifying its location. The canal is explored to locate and remove any more infected tissue and pulp.
- After removing the infected tissues, the root canal is disinfected by intra-canal medicines.
- Finally it is filled up and sealed with some inert material using different techniques.
- The treatment can be done for both vital (living) and Non-Vital (non-living) tooth.
Alternative Treatments:
Dr. Kezian offers alternate treatments in case where your medical conditions might not be suitable to undergo the treatment. They may include extracting the problematic tooth, restored dental implants, and a few others.
