Why should you get a root canal?
Root canal therapy is commonly recommended for people who have persistent tooth pain. It’s not the only thing that can help with mouth pain, though. This procedure is reserved for cases where a tooth has sustained extensive decay or damage beyond the capabilities of traditional restorative procedures like fillings or crowns. Look out for these symptoms if you’re wondering if you might need this procedure:
- Excruciating toothache that won’t go away for more than 24 hours.
- Increased tooth sensitivity is likely to blame if you suddenly feel pain when consuming hot or cold meals.
- Pain in one or more teeth when biting down could indicate a more serious problem.
- Gums that are swollen, red, and aching
- A dental problem may exist if you see a tiny, pustule-like protrusion around the impacted tooth.
You may be facing a dental emergency and in need of root canal treatment if you have any of the aforementioned symptoms. Don’t wait any longer to schedule an appointment with our dental clinic. Successful outcomes require prompt treatment; don’t risk worsening your injuries by waiting.
Infected pulp is best treated with a non-surgical technique that your dentist can do with local anesthesia. Your dentist will drill into the tooth, eradicate the damaged pulp, sterilize the root canal and seal it off for extra protection against infection – all in one efficient step.
Root canal therapy is usually completed in a single sitting; however, more than one visit may be necessary if the infection is particularly pervasive. Your dentist will let you know straight away if he or she discovers damage to the tooth that makes saving it impossible during the surgery. There should be minimal downtime required before your oral health is back to normal after completing treatment.
What Happens After a Root Canal?
We will schedule a follow-up consultation for a few weeks after your root canal has been performed to evaluate the need for further repair. Although complications following this treatment are extremely rare, you must keep up a rigorous regimen of preventative dental care to ensure the health of your remaining teeth.
