Conservative Restorative Procedure
A root canal or endodontic procedure on a tooth is simply the removal of the nerve of the tooth. This is done in cases where the nerve is infected or traumatized. If the nerve becomes infected, then the nerve needs to be removed from the tooth. The tooth is numbed using a local anaesthesia. Once the tooth is numbed, an opening is made into the nerve chamber using a dental hand piece. After the access is gained, the contents of the nerve chamber are carefully removed using special instruments. The chamber and the roots are then carefully cleaned out using instruments and medications. After the canals are cleaned, they are filled and sealed using a special material. This prevents any bacteria from reinfecting the tooth. After a root canal is performed, it is imperative to have a crown placed on the tooth. The crown protects the tooth and prevents it from fracturing. After the crown is placed, the tooth returns to normal function.
