This page aims to inform patients about endodontic procedures and the high-quality care they can expect at CSH.
Endodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the diagnosis and treatment of dental pulp and the tissues surrounding the roots of a tooth. The most common endodontic procedure is the root canal treatment, which aims to save a tooth that is severely infected or damaged.
Root canal treatment is a procedure designed to relieve pain and save teeth that have become infected or inflamed. The process involves:
Diagnosis and Preparation: The endodontist examines the tooth and takes X-rays to assess the extent of the infection. Local anesthesia is administered to ensure comfort during the procedure.
Cleaning and Shaping: The inflamed or infected pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and shaped.
Filling and Sealing: The cleaned space is filled with a biocompatible material, usually gutta-percha, and sealed to prevent future infections.
Restoration: After the root canal treatment, a crown or other restoration is placed on the tooth to restore its function and appearance.
Pain Relief: Root canal treatment alleviates the pain caused by infected or inflamed pulp.
Tooth Preservation: Saving your natural tooth maintains your smile's aesthetics and function.
High Success Rate: Root canal treatments have a high success rate, and many treated teeth last a lifetime.
There are several misconceptions about root canal treatment, including:
Myth 1: Root canal treatment is painful: Modern techniques and anesthetics make the procedure as comfortable as a routine filling.
Myth 2: Root canal treatment causes illness: There is no scientific evidence linking root canal treatments to systemic diseases.
Myth 3: It's better to extract a tooth: Preserving your natural tooth is always preferable to extraction and replacement.
