Endodontic therapy or root canal treatment often, directly with the help of professional Endodontic specialist and advanced technologies, can save teeth that are nearly lost or prolong the function of the teeth which are already dead.
Root canals, most often, must be treated when affected by infection and patient feels pain, especially when taking a bite. Canal treatment may also be necessary in other cases – after dental trauma or before prosthetic surgery. Endodontic teeth treatment include root canal mechanical and chemical treatment to eliminate infection, channel filling, root canal re-treatment, root tip microsurgery, slit tool removal, etc. Immediate closure of the tooth crown protects the root canals from further spreading of the infection.
Dentists often have to perform a root canal re-treatment. In other words – if the root canal is treated, the treatment is not finished on the first visit. It is treated and filled with temporary qualitative materials for several times. The most frequent reasons for that is the persistent pain, canal filling defect seen on X-ray, persistent inflammation under the root or another root canals under the same tooth that are left untreated at the first time.
Root canal treatment is carried out in local anesthesia and is painless.
