Tooth canal treatment

Therapeutic dentistry aims to preserve the human teeth. Therefore, all treatment procedures are aimed at achieving this goal. Of course, the best treatment is prevention, but in many cases, the process of tooth decay remains hidden from the eyes and nerve receptors of the patient of the dental clinic. When destruction or inflammation reaches the underlying tissues of the tooth, pain begins. And only after that the person goes to the doctor. In most cases, these symptoms indicate an inflammatory process of the pulp tissue (sensitive layer of the tooth).

If such a diagnosis is made, then it is necessary to remove the entire dead part of the tooth and fill it. In other words, the doctor will clean the canals of the tissues affected by caries. If the pain is felt, and the cavity is small, then the doctor should clean it of the affected tissues and make sure that the nerves are healthy and not inflamed.

As soon as there is pain or the tooth begins to respond to cold and hot dishes, you need to immediately visit the dentist. Dental canal treatment in modern dentistry is performed under local anesthesia. Diagnosis of pulpitis and verification of the results of the doctor's work on filling the tooth canals is carried out using radiological equipment. To date, dentists have learned to preserve such teeth for several years of faithful service to their owner. Therefore, treatment of dental canals helps to save the tooth from the final destruction and removal.
