Root Canal Treatment

The root canal is a small, thin section that branches from the upper pulp chamber towards the root tip. A tooth has at least one and at most four root canals. A tooth dies when the tissue in the root canal becomes infected or injured due to injury due to a deep or damaged space that allows bacteria to enter. Damaged or dead tissue causes bleeding and increased pressure on the tooth that cannot be reduced, resulting in severe pain and sensitivity to heat and cold. To relieve this pain, root canal treatment is performed, which involves removing the bad root and inserting a toothpick to treat the infection (abscess). Once these diseases are treated and removed, one is placed at the roots to close the negative space of the blood vessels.

What is Surgical Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal surgery is a procedure in which a small amount of tissue adjacent to the tooth is removed to reach and treat the root canal. Root canal treatment is a minor procedure usually performed in the office under local anesthesia. Once the disease occurs, the doctor will administer a "treatment" to eliminate the disease around the root. This is usually followed by "apicalectomy" surgery to remove diseased roots.
