Understanding Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a relatively straightforward endodontic procedure designed to treat teeth with an infected or inflamed inner pulp resulting from extensive decay, trauma, damaged restorations, tooth chips or cracks, or repeated dental procedures.
Without prompt treatment, tooth pulp damage can lead to complications, including severe pain, an abscessed tooth, bone loss around the tooth’s root, and even tooth loss. The infection may also affect the surrounding teeth and jawbone and may even enter the bloodstream, leading to serious health concerns. Root canal therapy relieves the pain caused by inner pulp damage and helps preserve your natural smile.
Signs of tooth pulp damage requiring root canal therapy include the following:
- Severe and persistent tooth pain
- Pain that increases with chewing or pressure
- A tooth chip or crack that exposes the inner pulp
- Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
- A persistent unpleasant taste in the mouth
- A pimple-like bump on your gums, indicating an abscess
- Swelling and tenderness in the nearby gums
A Word from Your Dentist
Dr. Norton always says that if she had a dental problem in her own mouth and could save the tooth with a root canal, she would. If the situation and prognosis permits, nothing is better than keeping your natural tooth.
Patients often ask, “Don’t root canals hurt?” Dr. Norton explains that people who need root canals often only remember the pain they were in to begin with. To fix the pain the patient needs a root canal procedure with the dentist. The root canal procedure itself is painless and will leave you feeling relieved and pain-free.
