A
mere thought of it gives you a nightmare. The pain, the no. of
appointments no way. I'm gonna get it done.
Wait,
Wait don't change the site. We do have the solutions for all these
problems.
Believe
us, Root Canal can be a painless procedure and can be completed in
1 or 2 sittings. With newer techniques and the latest advances in
the field of Endodontics, the task of root canal is much
simplified. Whenever any tooth gets decayed, the bacteria reach
the nerve crossing all hard barriers like enamel and dentin. Once
it attacks the nerve, then that shooting, pulsating pain and those
sleepless nights. Now the only treatment is to remove the infected
nerve from the tooth.
When to Root
Canal
If
you have a tooth whose internal structures are inflamed or
infected then this infection could spread from your tooth to the
Jaw bone. You may have symptoms like
-
Sensitivity
to hot and cold food
-
Constant
throbbing or dull pain
-
Pain
on chewing
-
Or
you may have no symptoms at all.
Whether
or not you have symptoms, your tooth will worsen over time and it
may eventually have to be removed.
Endodontics
Endodontics
or root canal therapy can restore your tooth to the healthiest
state by removing damaged tissue from inside of your tooth's root.
Dental Evaluation
Your
dentist evaluates the health of your teeth by asking you fro the
above symptoms or history or history of any injury to the tooth.
Tapping of teeth may also be done to check for pain. The dentist
may now take intra oral X rays to see the inside of your
tooth and the surroundings bone. Any unhealthy changes in the
tooth or the surroundings tissues may be visible on the X rays.
