Advanced root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a specialized dental procedure aimed at saving and restoring a severely decayed or infected tooth. It involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from the tooth’s interior, cleaning, disinfecting, and sealing the root canals, and restoring the tooth’s structure and function.
Advanced root canal treatment is needed when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, traumatic injury, or repeated dental procedures. Common signs that indicate the need for root canal treatment include severe tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, swelling, or abscess formation. The procedure is performed to alleviate pain, save the natural tooth, and prevent the spread of infection to surrounding tissues.
Local anesthesia is administered to numb the tooth and surrounding area for a comfortable experience. An access opening is created in the tooth's crown to reach the infected pulp chamber and root canals.
The infected or damaged pulp tissue is carefully removed using specialized instruments. The root canals are thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and shaped to remove any remaining bacteria or debris.
The root canals are sealed with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection and promote healing. The tooth is restored with a filling material or crown to strengthen and protect it from further damage.
Advanced root canal treatment offers several advantages, including:
