Root canal treatment is one of the most serious dental procedures. It requires not only a visit to an experienced dentist and a well-made diagnosis, but above all, incredible precision during treatment.
What is root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment is the more commonly used name for endodontic treatment. This treatment involves very thorough cleaning of the tooth root canals and the tooth cavity from the diseased pulp. After precise cleaning of diseased tissue, preparation and disinfection, the free spaces in the canals are filled.
When is endodontic treatment necessary?
Endodontics allows for the treatment of irreversible pulp inflammation. Their most common cause is caries, but it may happen that a tooth that does not hurt requires treatment due to an irreversible bacterial infection of the pulp. Root canal treatment may also be necessary in the event of a tooth injury or for prosthetic reasons.
What are the benefits of microscopic endodontics?
Treatment under a microscope has long ceased to be considered a whim. Thanks to the use of microscopes in dentistry, dental treatment has become much more precise. Traditional root canal treatment may not be successful, exposing the patient to very unpleasant symptoms and even tooth loss. Only a microscope allows you to see all narrowings, obliterations and perforations. Microscopic endodontics increases the chance of proper tooth treatment, allowing you to enjoy complete teeth for as long as possible.
