ROOT CANAL TREATMENT – A Cosmetic Dental Surgery

Root canal is the space within the tooth. It is naturally occurring space within the tooth that consist pulp chamber, the main canal, and more complicated structure branches that may connect the root canal with each other. At the center of all the teeth there is a hollow space which is fill with soft tissues, such as connective tissue, nerve and blood vessels. This hollow area contains a wide space in the coronal portion of the tooth which is known as pulp chamber. These canals run similarly through the center of the roots, as pencil lead runs through a pencil. rnThe situation in which tooth considered so threatened like because of decay, cracking, etc., that future infection is considered likely, then in that case removal of the pulp tissue is advised to prevent that infections. Generally some infection is already present within or below the tooth. To stop the infection and save the tooth dentist drill in to the pulp chamber and remove the infected pulp from the chamber, and then again drill to nerve out the root canal with a long drill shaped needle. When this process is done completely then dentist fill the each root canals & chamber with standard filling material commonly known as gutta-percha natural non-elastic latex from the sap of the percha tree. The standard technique involves inserting a gutta-percha cone into the cleaned-out root canal along with cement and a sealer. rnI have personal experience with root canal. It’s very painful when I started this treatment. It is so pain full that after the first visit to the dentist I am not able to eat anything properly. At this first visit, the dentist must ensure that I am not biting into the tooth, which could also trigger pain. As I have know that root canal therapy is one of the most feared dental procedures, but dentist assure me that now a day’s it’s not so pain full. For giving painless treatment he gives me anesthesia during the procedure. It’s take more than 2 week for complete treatment. I got swelling in my mouth because of the pain. When dentist completed the root canal treatment & done the temporary filling with calcium hydroxide paste, then after that I have intolerable pain in my tooth. This calcium hydroxide base is left for a week in my tooth to disinfect and reduce inflammation in surrounding tissue. But after the permanent filling I get relaxed and now I am free from any pain in my tooth.
