What is involved in the molar root canal?
The molar root channel is performed by a dentist or endodontist and requires the removal of dental pulp of a molar or rear tooth. This may be necessary due to tooth, abscess or physical trauma infection. The procedure is usually performed in the rooms of the dentist under a local anesthetic and may require a number of visits depending on the tooth and damage. If it did well, it should not mean too much pain if it exists. In fact, it is not really pulp, but in fact the blood vessels and nerves that run down the roots or roots of the tooth and connect to the gums and jaws. Depending on the tooth, there may be one or four channels per tooth.
When the molar root channel is required, the pulp of the mool was damaged, either tooth decay, infection or by trauma. Tooth decay generally occurs due to a lack of dental hygiene and in most cases can be avoided. Mouth isFor full bacteria that help break down food. When smashing carbohydrates and sugars, bacteria produce acid, which can be combined with food particles and produced plaque, sticky film that covers teeth. Plak damages enamel and can eventually allow bacteria, which can cause infections.
In some cases, an abscess that may require antibiotic treatment before the molar root canal may require in the tooth. Trauma also, such as the wound to the jaw, can cause tooth damage and exposure to the nerve, which requires a molar root canal. Symptoms of infection or exposed nerve include tenderness when eating or drinking hot or cold foods, swelling of gums or faces and pain.
The molar root channel can take several hours. The X -ray with an infected tooth is collected to find out how many channels are present and where the work will be done. Mokárs can have two to four channels and may require more visits. In some cases, antibiotics may be given before, runninghem or after the molary root canal.
Local anesthetic is administered around the area where the molar root canal will be performed. The tooth then opens and the soft pulp is completely removed. The root channels are generally very small, so dentists usually use a set to expand the area and its performance before it is filled. If the molar root channel is performed within several visits, temporary fillings will be made. A small amount of antibiotics can be inserted into the channel to prevent further infection.
As soon as the procedure is completed, the dentist usually puts the crown per tooth. The molar root channel can cause the tooth to be slightly weaker than other teeth and the crown should prevent further damage. During the root and after the channel, the patient should take care of it so that he does not eat anything too hard or sticky until the crown is completed. Some pain may be experienced for a while, for which analgesia can be prescribed.
