Endodontic

Saving smiles Endodontics to the rescue.

Endodontics is a dentistry that primarily focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and injuries affecting the dental pulp, root, and surrounding tissues. The term “endodontics” comes from the Greek words “endo,” meaning inside, and “odont,” meaning tooth. Endodontic treatments are done to save the teeth that need to be extracted due to severe decay, infection, or trauma.

Importance of Endodontics Care

In addition to alleviating pain and preventing infection, endodontic treatment can also help save a tooth from extraction. Some of the benefits of having endodontics care are:

  • 1 Natural teeth are preserved: Endodontic treatment will help you to save your natural teeth, which are likely to be extracted and are either damaged or have problems.
  • 2 Relief from pain: It will eventually reduce the pain caused by infection or inflammation of the pulp.
  • 3 Prevention of Further Issues: Treating infected teeth prevents the spread of infection to other areas of the mouth.
  • 4 Maintenance of Oral Function: Keeping your natural teeth helps maintain proper chewing and speaking functions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

When decay, trauma, or other stuff messes up the dental pulp in a tooth and makes it infected or inflamed, you gotta get root canal therapy. Severe toothache, sensitivity to heat or cold, and discomfort are possible symptoms.

Following the root canal therapy, patients may experience some sensitivity or minor discomfort. Painkillers and antibiotics are used to decrease the pain. Endodontists recommend waiting to chew on the treated tooth until it has received a permanent crown or filling.

Although root canal therapy is quite effective, there is little chance that the infection might return. You can decrease this risk gradually by getting regular dental checkups, practicing good oral hygiene, and promptly getting a crown or filling on the treated tooth.
