Root Canal

Root canal therapy is a dental procedure designed to treat infections or damage within the pulp of a tooth. At Hasya Dental, our skilled practitioners perform this procedure to save a compromised tooth, alleviating pain and preventing the need for extraction. During a root canal, the infected or damaged pulp is removed, the space is cleaned, disinfected, and then filled to restore the tooth’s function and structure.

When is the Treatment Required

Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or damaged due to deep decay, a cracked tooth, or trauma. Indications include severe toothache, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, and swelling or tenderness in the surrounding gums.

Benefits of the Treatment

  1. Pain Relief: Root canal therapy effectively eliminates the source of tooth pain, providing relief from persistent discomfort.
  2. Preservation of Natural Tooth: The procedure allows for the preservation of the natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction and maintaining oral function.
  3. Prevention of Spread of Infection: Root canal treatment stops the spread of infection, safeguarding surrounding teeth and preventing the development of abscesses.
  4. Restoration of Chewing Function: Following root canal therapy, a tooth can continue to function normally, allowing for proper chewing and biting.
  5. Aesthetic Benefits: The tooth is typically restored with a crown after root canal therapy, enhancing its appearance and maintaining a natural-looking smile.
  6. Improvement in Overall Oral Health: By addressing the underlying infection, root canal treatment contributes to improved overall oral health and prevents complications associated with untreated dental infections.

Duration of the Treatment

The duration of a root canal procedure can vary based on factors such as the tooth’s location and complexity. In general, the treatment is completed in one or two appointments.

Overall rating:

Is root canal therapy painful?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring that patients experience minimal discomfort during the treatment. Post-procedure, any mild soreness can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

What happens if I avoid getting a root canal?

Untreated infections within the tooth can lead to abscess formation, spreading of the infection to surrounding tissues, and eventual tooth loss. Root canal therapy is crucial to prevent these complications.

How long does it take to recover after a root canal?

Recovery is usually quick, with patients able to resume normal activities shortly after the procedure. Following post-treatment care instructions is essential for a smooth recovery.

Can a tooth with a root canal treatment get re-infected?

While rare, reinfection can occur. However, proper oral hygiene practices and regular dental check-ups significantly reduce the risk of recurrence.

Will the tooth look natural after a root canal and crown placement?

Yes, the tooth is typically restored with a crown that closely mimics the natural appearance, ensuring a seamless blend with the surrounding teeth.

Is root canal treatment suitable for all teeth?

Root canal therapy can be performed on most teeth with infected or damaged pulp. Our team will assess each case to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
