Root canal treatment is a procedure used to treat infection or inflammation within the inner part of a tooth. When the dental pulp becomes damaged due to deep decay, trauma, or cracks, treatment may be needed to prevent the infection from spreading and to preserve the natural tooth.
During treatment, the affected pulp is carefully removed, the root canals are cleaned and disinfected, and the space is sealed to protect the tooth from further infection. The tooth is then restored to help return its strength, function, and appearance.
At Medrose Medical Center, root canal treatment is performed with careful attention to precision and patient comfort, with the goal of saving the natural tooth whenever possible.
Root canal treatment may be recommended when a tooth has:
* Deep decay reaching the pulp
* Persistent or severe toothache
* Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold
* Pain when biting or chewing
* Swelling or tenderness around the tooth
* Damage caused by trauma or cracks
With modern techniques and local anesthesia, root canal treatment can generally be performed comfortably. Some tenderness may occur after treatment, but this is usually temporary and manageable.
The goal of root canal treatment is simple: eliminate infection, relieve discomfort, and preserve your natural tooth for as long as possible.
1. Examination
The tooth is assessed clinically and, when needed, with dental imaging to determine the extent of the problem.
2. Cleaning the Canals
The infected or inflamed pulp is removed, and the root canals are carefully cleaned and disinfected.
3. Sealing the Tooth
The cleaned canals are sealed to help prevent bacteria from entering again.
4. Final Restoration
The tooth is restored to regain its function and protect it from further damage. In some cases, a dental crown may be recommended for additional strength.
