PROCEDURE

Understanding Root Canals Procedure

A root canal is a specialized dental procedure performed to save a tooth that would otherwise need to be removed. It becomes necessary when the tooth’s nerve becomes infected, or the pulp, which is the soft area within the center of the tooth, becomes damaged. At UltraSmile, we prioritize saving the natural tooth through root canal treatment, which is often a preferable option to tooth extraction.

Problems Solved by Root Canals Treatment

Root canal treatment addresses several critical issues:

  • Infection: When tooth decay leads to an abscess or severe infection, a root canal is often the only way to remove the infected tissue and save the tooth.
  • Pain Relief: Severe tooth pain often results from infections or nerve damage, and root canal treatment can effectively alleviate this pain.
  • Prevents Spread of Infection: By removing the infected pulp, root canal treatment prevents the spread of infection to other teeth and areas of the mouth.

Candidates for Root Canals Treatment

Candidates for a root canal typically have:

  • Severe toothache during chewing or application of pressure.
  • Prolonged sensitivity or pain in response to temperature extremes.
  • Darkening of the tooth.
  • Swelling and tenderness in nearby gums.
  • A persistent or recurring pimple on the gums.

Root Canals Procedure at UltraSmile

At UltraSmile in Miami, our root canal procedure involves the following steps:

  1. Removal of Decay and Infection: We first remove any decay and open the crown of the tooth to access the pulp chamber.
  2. Cleaning and Shaping: Next, the pulp is removed, and the root canals are meticulously cleaned and shaped.
  3. Filling the Canals: The cleaned root canals and pulp chamber are then filled.
  4. Restoration of the Tooth: We often use a metal or plastic rod or post in the root canal to retain the core filling material, which supports the restoration, usually a crown or filling.

Longevity of Restored Teeth

A tooth restored with a root canal filling can last for many years, similar to any other tooth. However, like any dental work, it can become decayed, fractured, or the surrounding tissue might develop gum disease. Regular dental cleanings and exams at UltraSmile are crucial in maintaining the health of the treated tooth and overall oral hygiene.
