Root Canal Teatment

CROWN :  This is the part of the tooth you can see above the gumline.

ROOT :  This part of the tooth sits in the bone below the gum. The root of your tooth is usually
twice as long as the crown, the part you see above the gum line.

Why is the root canal performed?

The pulp is the living tissue of the tooth with blood supply and nerve supply. Once dental caries (decay ) involves the pulp, the pulp gets infected causing pain. The aim of the root canal treatment is to remove the infected pulp. This is done by removing the infected pulp with files in the pulp chamber and cleaning and shaping the root canals and sealing the canal with a filling material. At Anbu Dental Clinic, we provide the best root canal treatment at an economical cost in whole Madurai city. “PRESERVING YOUR TOOTH FOR YOUR FUTURE”.

We use lasers for sterilization of root canals.

Nothing is as good as a natural tooth! And sometimes your natural tooth may need endodontic (root canal) treatment for it to remain as a healthy part of your mouth. Most patients report that having endodontic (root canal) treatment today is as unremarkable as having a cavity filled. Expert endodontics services are carried out in our clinic. They have a wide experience in this regard.

Root canal therapy

Each tooth has a soft tissue – the pulp which nourishes the tooth. Because of deep decay, injury, or gum disease, the pulp tissue in your tooth has become inflamed or infected. In any other part of your body, if a similar tissue becomes diseased, the body merely throws it off and forms new tissue. However, a tooth is a unique and different. Because the infected soft tissue (pulp) within the tooth is totally encased within hard tissue, it is the role of the dentist to remove the soft tissue located in the root canals, cleanse the area, and finally fill the canals with a special material so that bacteria cannot re-enter the tooth to cause another infection. When the endodontic treatment is complete, the tooth is by no means “dead”. It receives quite adequate support from the surrounding tissues and may be expected to last as long as any other natural tooth.

After the tooth is anesthetized, an opening is made through the crown into the pulp chamber.

The length of the root canals is determined.

Unhealthy pulp is removed. Canals are cleaned, enlarged and shaped.

Canals are filled and sealed. A metal post may be added for structural support or to retain restorative materials.

The tooth is sealed with a temporary filling. Usually a crown adds further protection.
