Why choose VR Dental clinic Kukatpally for Root Canal Treatment?

“Why is root canal treatment necessary?

 

When the pulp of a tooth becomes infected, the infection can spread through the root canal system, possibly leading to an abscess. An abscess is a swollen area where pus collects, causing pain and swelling around the tooth. Without root canal treatment, the infection may worsen, eventually requiring the tooth to be extracted.

 

Does root canal treatment cause pain?

 

No, typically a local anesthetic is used so the procedure should feel similar to getting a regular filling. Some tenderness may occur afterwards, but this should improve over time.

 

What does the treatment involve?

 

The goal of root canal treatment is to remove infected tissue from the root canal, clean the area thoroughly, and fill it to prevent further infection. This procedure is intricate and time-consuming, but essential for saving the tooth in most

“What if the infection returns?

 

Root canal treatment is typically successful, but if the infection reoccurs, the treatment can be repeated.

 

What happens if I choose not to have the treatment?

 

If the pulp is destroyed, the only option is to extract the tooth. Leaving an infected tooth in the mouth is not recommended, although some may opt for extraction. It is generally advised to preserve as many natural teeth as possible.

 

Is the tooth secure after treatment?

 

Yes, but a ‘dead’ tooth may be more fragile. In some cases, a crown may be necessary to provide additional support and strength to the tooth. Where is root canal treatment performed?

 

Root canal treatment is a common dental procedure that your dentist can perform. However, in certain situations, you may be referred to an endodontist, a specialist in this type of treatment.

 

How do I care for my tooth after treatment?

 

Root-treated teeth should be cared for in the same manner as any other tooth.”

 

 

The aim of Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is to adequately disinfect the root canal system, with the objectives of preventing pain, infection, and tooth loss. Although RCT is an effective procedure with success rates of more than 82% to 92.6% , public perception is generally negative, with high levels of anxiety and fear, and a poor understanding of treatment benefits,. Historically, health professionals, specialist associations, and regulatory organizations have been responsible for educating and disseminating information to patients. Although there is a paucity of evidence specific to where patients seek information relating to endodontic treatment, a shift has been noted within health care more generally. Increasingly, patients are turning to alternative sources of information, with 45% of patients researching health care information before appointments with their health care professional.

When permanent dental pulp damage is detected in a tooth, the damaged tissue and any microbial growth are removed from the pulp chamber. The root canals are disinfected and treated with medication. Finally, the treated root canal is filled and the tooth is restored.

 

• • The individual care visits are long, but usually, no more than two visits are needed. The restoration of the tooth often requires a separate visit.

 

• • If necessary, root canal therapy is always performed under local anesthesia. Sedative premedication can be administered before the therapy. The success of root canal treatment is usually controlled by clinical examination and X-ray images within one year of the operation.
