Root canals are recommended to save teeth that have damaged, diseased or dead pulp, but are otherwise viable to the overall health and function of your mouth. Generally, you would require a root canal if you crack your tooth or develop an extremely deep cavity, that cannot be addressed with a typical filling. Both of these situations allow bacteria from your mouth to reach your pulp, which can lead to devastating infection, swelling, or the dying of the pulp’s vital tissue.
Root canals are extremely painful, but the treatment is comfortable and can significantly reduce toothache, pain, and sensitivity. Best of all, root canal therapy makes it possible for Our Dental team to save teeth that may otherwise have been extracted.
If you experience any warning signs that you may need root canal treatment including severe toothache, dental sensitivity, and discoloration of the tooth, contact shanti dentals clinic in Rohini, Delhi.
How do I know if I need Root Canal treatment?
Dr. Rajesh Bansal and his dental team will monitor the health of your mouth and look out for any signs of infection, decay, or general tooth stress that may signify the need for a root canal procedure. Most patients who don’t visit the dentist for a number of years will require a root canal procedure due to neglecting their mouth and dental health.
When we perform a general check-up we may ask you questions and look for signs of the following
- Lingering tooth sensitivity when cold.
- Tooth pain to biting pressure or constant severe tooth pain.
- Impulsive toothache.
- Unbearable tooth pain.
- Tissue swelling of the face.
If you have Pain in Gums and require a root canal treatment, we do recommend that you visit us as soon as possible for treatment to avoid any aggravated problems as the pain may also be a sign of another dental condition. If root canal treatment is necessary x-rays will be taken at your dental consultation so that we can take a deeper look at the extent of the damage. After this we will most likely perform thorough dental hygiene cleaning, preparing you for your next appointment where we will perform the root canal.
What occurs during Root Canal Treatment?
Root Canal Treatment consists of removing the nerve that lies at the root of the tooth and is causing pain. A sedative dressing will be placed inside your tooth between each visit to help settle the surrounding tissues and destroy the remaining bacteria. If root canal treatment is not performed bacteria will destroy supportive bone structure around the tooth and will inevitably lead to tooth loss. Once this has been performed we will most likely construct a dental crown to restore the strength and appearance of your tooth.
What happens after treatment?
When you have had a local anesthetic you might feel a bit numb for several hours in the face so you need to be careful not to knock the area. If there is any pain after the anesthetic wears off an over-the-counter pain killer should be sufficient.
Recovery after your root canal treatment
It is normal to experience mild pain for a few days after a root canal.If you still experience pain or swelling, you should see your dentist There may be further x-rays and check-ups just to make sure everything is healing well. Occasionally it will be necessary to have further root canal treatment if any further decay develops or if the tooth cracks. It is essential that you take care of the tooth that has been repaired after treatment.
This is what we recommend for keeping your teeth your gums and your mouth healthy:
- Brush your teeth twice every day and use toothpaste with fluoride
