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.
