Endodontic treatment under the microscope
Endodontics is a field of dental treatment for the root canals of a tooth. Treatment is performed when a tooth affected by decay causes inflammation of the pulp (in common parlance, they say to remove the nerves in the tooth). The main signs of dental disease are a reaction to thermal stimuli and pain, which occurs in the evening and can last throughout the night. A high-quality and proper primary endodontic treatment is essential. To avoid future periodontitis (inflammation and destruction of bone tissue in the affected tooth). Quality dental treatment depends on the ability to see the tooth as closely as possible, and a dental microscope gives the doctor just that. Using the microscope, the endodontist can accurately perform instrumentation and medication on the tooth and successfully restore the tooth.
Secondary endodontic treatment of root canals is performed when the tooth has undergone unsuccessful primary treatment. Then the endodontist has to re-treat that tooth. It is necessary to remove the old filling material, you can find another root canal that was not detected during the initial treatment, disinfect the root canal well and fill it. After that, a control X-ray is sure to be taken to make sure that the material has filled the root canals of the tooth tightly and accurately.
Removal of broken instruments from the root canals
broken instruments are removed when a piece of endodontic instrument has broken off in the root canal during treatment of the tooth. This does not at all mean that the tooth is no longer viable. The presence of the instrument in the root canal affects the quality of treatment because we cannot properly clean and disinfect the canal. In order to remove the instrument from the root canal you need a lot of experience to perform the treatment and special equipment. A dental microscope and quality instruments are our best assistants. At our clinic, Mary Care, we have everything you need to perform this treatment, thus saving the tooth from extraction. If you need to have a root canal instrument extracted, we can easily help you solve the problem. That's why Mary Care Dental Clinic has an experienced dentist, quality and up-to-date equipment, instruments and quality certified materials.
Important dental advice! In order to avoid inflammation or tooth loss, you should definitely come in for a checkup with your dentist, once every six months.
