Save Your Tooth With Root Canal Treatment

Human teeth are divided into two parts, namely the crown and roots. The crown consists of – tooth enamel, gums, and dentin; While the root part of the tooth consists of – the pulp chamber, the root canal, which contains pulp tissue, bones, supporting ligaments, root openings, etc.

Root canal treatment done by Alexandria dentist is a dental procedure in which a tooth can be repaired by removing the pulp chamber of the tooth and filling it with a suitable filling. This usually occurs when a tooth cannot be filled or restored. This is because the tooth decay has reached the nerve of the tooth or the tooth has become infected.

You can prevent tooth extraction by treating root canals of teeth where the nerves are dead or severely damaged or damaged. This is the last resort to save the tooth from being extracted. If the RCT is successful, all the microbes in the root area will be removed and these teeth can last a long time.

Root canal treatment is recognized by several names – RCT, root canal therapy, endodontic treatment. This treatment is mainly aimed at treating the inside of the teeth.

The goal of RCT is to relieve a toothache caused by pulp infection or inflammation. Local anesthesia is performed during the procedure and the patient feels almost painless. Your teeth will be soft in the first few days after treatment, even if there was pain or infection before the procedure.
