What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure.

What care is required after a root canal procedure?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should not eat until the anaesthetic wears off. They should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food for at least a week. They should avoid eating hard food or sticky food. If swelling occurs they should sleep with their head raised for a few days to bring it down.

Always takes his time to explain everything in detailJon, Ireland, 02 09 21

Does anyone like the dentist, well not me. This all changed after my 1st visit to new smile many years ago. As soon as you walk through the door the receptionist is the most pleasant, helpful and just great at dealing with clients. The dentist David is just a gentleman and have to say one of the nicest people I have ever met. Always takes his time to explain everything in detail. Explains the pros and cons of the different procedures. All I can say is the man is gifted. Has to be the best dentist in the country.
