What Is Dental Root Canals Treatment?
Many people hear the words “root canal” and immediately think of pain. Dental root canal treatments are performed to eliminate pain, not cause it.
Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called the dental pulp. This pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue that help the tooth develop during childhood. Once a tooth has fully matured, it no longer relies on the pulp for nourishment.
When the pulp becomes infected or severely inflamed, it cannot heal on its own. During dental root canal treatments, the infected pulp is removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and shaped, and the canals are sealed with a biocompatible filling material. Finally, the tooth is restored to protect it from future damage.
Signs You May Need Root Canal Treatment in Belleville
Not every infected tooth causes severe pain. Some patients experience subtle symptoms while others notice significant discomfort.
You may benefit from a root canal treatment if you experience:
- Persistent toothache
- Pain when chewing or biting
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swollen or tender gums
- A pimple-like bump on the gums
- Tooth discolouration
- Facial swelling
- Deep decay reaching the nerve
