Endodontic therapy (root
canal) is a treatment modality that will save diseased or
injured teeth. The alternative to endodontics is extraction.
Typically, a severely decayed tooth or a tooth with a large
filling will begin to ache. The pain might be intermittent
at first and over time progress to a constant dull throbbing
pain or a severe ache that might be felt on all the teeth on
the affected side. Sometimes there is no pain and an abscess
might be discovered on a routine x-ray. We dentists in
mexico carry out special treatment for this type of problem.
DO YOU NEED ENDODONTIC TREATMENT The signs of needing
Endodontic treatment would be:
Signs to look for include pain, prolonged sensitivity to
heat or cold, tenderness to touch and chewing, discoloration of
the tooth, and swelling, drainage and tenderness in the lymph
nodes as well as nearby bone and gingival tissues. Sometimes,
however, there are no symptoms.
ROOT CANAL THERAPY What is root canal
treatment?
Dentist
Mexico uses root canal treatment to find the cause and then
treat problems of the tooth's soft core (the dental pulp). Years
ago, teeth with diseased or injured pulps were removed. Today,
root canal treatment has given dentists a safe way of saving
teeth.
WHAT IS THE DENTAL
PULP?
The pulp is the soft tissue
that contains nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue. It
lies within the tooth and extends from the crown of the tooth to
the tip of the root in the bone of the jaws
WHY DOES THE PULP
NEED TO BE REMOVED?
When the infected pulp is not
removed, pain and swelling can result. Certain byproducts of the
infection can injure your jaw bones. Without treatment, your
tooth may have to be removed.
