Root canal Procedure & Steps taken in Root Canal Treatment
What is a root canal?
Root canals are required for those who are injured on the tooth or deep cavity, genetics, or previous filling tooth. Who are the ones who need a root canal?
Those who had sensitivity in teeth especially for hot and cold sensations.
Root canal treatment :
Mainly the root canal treatment contains removal of inflamed or injured pulp and delicately clean and germicide the inside tooth, then filled and closed up.
Things to know :
A soft tissue called pulp is found inside your tooth, beneath the white enamel and a hard layer called dentin.
This tissue comprises blood arteries, nerves, and connective tissue, all of which aid in the growth of the root of your tooth.
Because the tooth is supplied by the tissues around it, a fully mature tooth can survive without the pulp.
Steps to be taken in Root Canal Treatment:
Step 1: Anesthetic
A small amount of numbing medicine will be applied to the gums near the impacted tooth by the dentist.
A local anesthetic will be inserted into your gums once the medication has taken effect.
A severe pinch or a burning feeling may occur, but it will fade rapidly.
Step 2: Detach the pulp
The dentist will make a small opening in the crown of your tooth when it is numb.
The specialist will carefully remove the contaminated or damaged pulp using specific files once it has been exposed.
They'll take special care to clean up all of your tooth's channels.
Step 3: Coating Process
The dentist may apply a topical antibiotic to the area after the pulp has been removed to ensure that the infection is gone and to prevent reinfection.
The dentist will fill and seal the tooth using a sealer paste and a rubber-like material called gutta-percha after the canals have been cleaned and sterilized.
Step 4: Protection Process
The final step will be filling the top surface of the tooth with a soft, makeshift material.
It helps prevent the canals from the saliva.
