Family Dental Care provides the best root canal treatment. The removal of the pulp, a small, thread-like tissue in the center of the tooth, is known as root canal treatment. After removing the damaged, diseased, or dead pulp, the remaining space is cleaned, shaped, and filled. The root canal is sealed off during this procedure. The pulp tissue, which contains a nerve and blood supply within the tooth, is removed during root canal treatment. After all of the material within the root canal has been removed, the canal is sterilized and sealed with a material that prevents bacteria from re-entering and infecting the tooth. Depending on the situation, root canal treatment consists of several steps that take place over several office visits. These steps are as follows To begin, a hole is made in the back of a front tooth or the crown of a molar or pre-molar. Following the removal of the diseased pulp (a pulpectomy), the pulp chamber and root canals are cleaned, enlarged, and shaped in preparation for filling. A temporary filling is placed in the crown opening to protect the tooth between dental visits if more than one visit is required. After removing the temporary filling, the pulp chamber and root canal are permanently filled. Gutta-percha, a tapered, rubbery material, is inserted into each canal and is frequently sealed in place with cement. For structural support, a metal or plastic rod may be placed in the canal. A crown is usually placed over the tooth in the final step to restore its natural shape and appearance. If the tooth is severely damaged, a post may be required to rebuild it before placing a crown.
