Root Canal Treatment In Desa Park City
For Emergencies: Call +603 – 6411 8010
Root canal treatment is a common dental procedure that saves a severely damaged tooth. It is necessary when your tooth root becomes infected and inflamed. During a root canal procedure, our dentists will remove the infected pulp, clean and disinfect the inside of the tooth, followed by sealing it. A dental crown will then be customised and cemented to replace the damaged tooth.
Among the common root canal causes is severe tooth decay. If you have an untreated tooth decay, a deep cavity will form over time and a root canal is needed. Besides, you will need a root canal for cracked teeth that may be caused by injuries, teeth grinding or tooth enamel damage. Furthermore, gum infection should be treated using root canal to eliminate bacteria. In addition, previous dental trauma that dislodged or moved a permanent tooth sideways might cause nerve death. Thus, root canal treatment restores the tooth to proper function. Root canal is also done for large cavity fillings to prevent infection.
There are a few care tips to be aware of after a root canal treatment. Firstly, do not chew or bite with a root canal treated tooth that does not have a crown yet, otherwise it might cause severe fracture. It is also crucial to avoid sticky or hard food. Besides, good oral hygiene practices that include brushing, flossing, and using fluoride are recommended after a root canal. As a patient may experience mild pain from a root canal treatment, the pain is usually manageable using over-the-counter pain medications, such as ibuprofen, for the first few days following treatment.
