What is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy involves the removal of the infected or inflamed pulp from within the damaged tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the inner chambers and then filling and sealing the space to prevent re-infection.Â
Benefits of Root Canal Therapy:
- Pain Relief: Effectively eliminates pain caused by pulp infection or inflammation.
- Tooth Preservation: Allows for the saving of a tooth that might otherwise need to be removed.
- Prevention of Further Damage: Helps protect other teeth from strain and wear, and prevents the spread of infection.Â
The Root Canal Process:
- Diagnosis: Includes thorough examination and X-rays to determine the extent of the infection.
- Procedure: Performed under local anesthesia to ensure comfort. The infected pulp is removed, and the canals are cleaned, disinfected and sealed.
- Restoration: Typically involves placing a crown on the treated tooth to restore its function and appearance.
