Root canal treatment me kya hota hai
Root canal treatment removes diseased pulp, cleans and seals the root canals, and restores the tooth.
The short answer
The pulp contains nerves and blood vessels; treatment accesses the tooth, removes inflamed tissue, shapes and disinfects canals, then seals them.
Which tools and materials are used to treat the canals?
After examination and radiographs, the dentist uses local anaesthetic, a rubber dam, fine instruments, irrigant, a canal filling, and a coronal restoration.
Which symptoms should be assessed promptly before treatment?
Lingering pain, swelling, pus, or difficulty swallowing should be assessed promptly.
What should you ask about the restoration and recovery?
Ask how much tooth remains, what restoration is needed, and what symptoms after treatment are expected.
