What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment, i.e. endodontic treatment, consists in the diagnosis and treatment of changes in the innervated and vascularized part of the tooth together with the bone area in which it is embedded. The root canal treatment is carried out on teeth that can be qualified for extraction. So it can be said, this is a way to save teeth.

The treatment procedure and activities are complicated and require the knowledge and precision from a dentist. The process of root canal treatment consists of:

- opening the tooth and cleaning it from the pulp. The pulp is also removed from the root canals, and then the inner space is rinsed with chemicals. It also stems from the fact, that within the pulp there are very often bacterial habitats that have directly contributed to the need of root canal treatment.

- after thorough cleaning, the canal is filled with a biocompatible material, neutral to the human body. The purpose of the filling is to prevent the possible re-emergence of an infection that could spread to the bordering canals.

- the treatment ends with the reconstruction of the tooth. After the treatment is finished, the tooth does not contain pulp any longer, it is dead, therefore it turns darker. To maintain the aesthetic visual effect, especially on the teeth visible while smiling, we suggest using veneers that will successfully imitate the natural whiteness and shine.

Root canal treatment is successful in over 90% cases and guarantees the wellness of the tooth for many years. This is, undoubtedly, due to the use of a microscope during the treatment. Root canal treatment requires high precision from the dentist, and the microscope improves the visibility of the tooth and its canals, as well as provides good lighting. Such modern approach also excludes the risk of breaking a tool and leaving it in the canal, which could result in negative consequences such as pain even after many years. Microscopic root canal treatment is also a guarantee of reaching all canals and spaces which are inaccessible in case of traditional treatment methods. The procedure carried out with the microscope is a guarantee of a correct diagnosis, successful treatment procedure, and the highest adoption rate of the treated tooth.
