A root canal treatment in Navi Mumbai has to be done when there is pulp damage. If the cause of your tooth pain is severe decay or infection in the tooth pulp, your tooth may need a root canal treatment.
If the pulp is infected or dead and left untreated, pus can build up at the tip of the root, forming an abscess. An abscess can destroy the bone around the tooth and can lead to pain.
The most common causes of pulp damage are
Your tooth might need a root canal treatment in Navi Mumbai if:
During root canal treatment in Airoli, the infected or inflamed pulp (a small, thread-like tissue in the center of the root) is removed, the inside of the root is cleaned and disinfected, and filled with a rubber-like material called gutta-percha. This procedure is to seal off the root canal. The tooth is then restored with a filling (with/without crown) for protection. In olden times, such teeth with infected pulps were removed. Today, root canal treatment to save such teeth is the preferred choice. After complete treatment, the tooth continues to be in function.
Some of the advantages of saving your natural tooth are:
Treated and restored tooth/teeth can last a lifetime with proper care. Since tooth decay can still occur in treated teeth, good oral hygiene maintenance and regular dental checkups are necessary to prevent further problems.
It depends on the damage the tooth has. Occasionally, a tooth can’t be saved if the tooth cannot be restored, has inadequate bone support, root fracture, or the root canals are not accessible.
However, advances in endodontics have made it possible to save teeth that even a few years ago would have been removed. Sometimes, endodontic surgery may be advised to save the tooth.
Root canals have a high success rate. Few ways to take care of your teeth after a root canal:
Single sitting root canal treatment of teeth is an advancement in dentistry. Single visit root canals have become very common. The dentist performs the entire root canal treatment of teeth in a single sitting with an antibiotic coverage for about 2-3 days (depending on the type of decay and dental problems of the patient.)
As with any dental or medical procedure, a tooth may not heal as expected after treatment for a variety of reasons:
During retreatment, the tooth is reopened, and the filling material is removed. The tooth is then examined for additional canals or causes of a new infection. The infection is removed, the canals are again cleaned and shaped, and new filling material is placed in the root canal. A temporary filling is used to seal the opening. After the tooth heals, a new crown or other restoration is placed on the tooth.
Saving your natural tooth is the best option always. Retreated teeth can function well for years. There might be newer techniques and materials available which might not have been there when you had your first procedure. Endodontic surgery might be advised to remove an infection from below the root if required. Though the success rate of a re-treated root canal is lower than a root canal, it is advised to try and save the tooth. The other alternative to retreatment of failing endodontics is tooth extraction. It will then need to be replaced to restore function and aesthetics and prevent the shifting of other teeth.
