Antalya Root canal treatment is the main activity in endodontia – a branch of dentistry which engages in preventing, detecting, and curing diseases of the tooth pulp (a soft tissue located within the tooth).
Stages of root canal treatment in Antalya
Disinfection and washing of the oral cavity.
Local anaesthesia. Teeth can be cured without anaesthesia but in this case, it is not always possible to deliver high-quality treatment. That is why we always offer local anaesthesia.
Root canals of the tooth undergo thorough mechanical cleaning (internal necrotic tissues get removed, as well as residuals of the nerves and blood vessels).
Using a twist drill, the dentist drills the surface of the tooth trying to preserve as much of it as possible.
The tooth cavity gets disinfected with the use of contemporary and safe techniques.
Root canals of the tooth get filled with special medical substances.
During this stage the dentist removes the inflamed and non-vital tooth pulp – a soft tissue within the tooth which is located under hard layers of the enamel and the dentin.
Why is it necessary to remove the pulp? Root canal treatment helps save the tooth with infected or destroyed pulp and prevent the spread of the inflammation to the periodontal ligament which connects the tooth and the jaw and further on to the bone tissue of the jaw.
Why is it not recommended to just remove the tooth? Tooth extraction without replacing the tooth with an artificial construction can lead to the shift of the teeth on both sides of the empty space. Such a shift causes overcrowding, twist, and other defects of the adjacent teeth, which reduce the efficiency of biting and chewing, hinder the tooth cleaning and make the teeth more prone to cavities. As a result, the adjoining teeth can also be lost with time.
The replacement of the removed tooth with the help of an implant or a bridge is normally a more costly procedure than endodontic treatment.
