Root Canal Treatment at Bakery Hill Dental

A root canal is a dental procedure designed to treat and save a tooth that has become severely infected or damaged. It involves removing the damaged or infected pulp from the interior of the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the area, and then filling and sealing it to prevent further issues. This treatment helps to preserve the tooth and alleviate pain, allowing you to maintain your natural smile.

What Happens During a Root Canal Procedure?

1. Examination and X-Rays: The dentist examines the affected tooth and takes X-rays to assess the extent of the damage and plan the procedure.

2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the affected tooth and surrounding area, ensuring a pain-free experience.

3. Access Opening: The dentist creates a small opening in the crown of the tooth to access the pulp chamber and root canals.

4. Cleaning and Disinfection: The dentist removes the infected or damaged pulp, cleans and disinfects the root canals to eliminate bacteria and debris.

5. Filling and Sealing: The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha, and the opening is sealed to prevent future infection.

6. Restoration: In many cases, a crown or filling is placed on the tooth to restore its strength and functionality, completing the treatment.

When Root Canal Treatment is Needed?

  • Severe Tooth Pain: Persistent pain in the tooth, especially when chewing or applying pressure, can indicate pulp damage or infection.
  • Prolonged Sensitivity: Extended sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures may signal damage to the tooth’s nerve.
  • Tooth Discoloration: Darkening or discoloration of the tooth can be a sign of internal damage or infection.
  • Swelling or Abscess: Noticeable swelling in the gums or the presence of a pimple-like bump on the gums may indicate an infection in the tooth’s pulp.
  • Injury or Trauma: A tooth that has been cracked, fractured, or severely damaged from an injury may require a root canal to save it.
  • Treatment for Infected Teeth: Removes damaged or infected pulp to save the tooth.
  • Pain Relief: Alleviates severe tooth pain and discomfort.
  • Tooth Preservation: Restores the function and health of a damaged tooth.
