Root canal treatment is a painless process that can be done in a single visit. Dr. Salim Kapadia Dental Centre in Scarborough is well-known for providing affordable single visit root canal treatment in a painless and stress-free environment.
The word “Root Canal” refers to the inner part of the tooth between the pulp and the tooth roots. It contains blood vessels, nerves, and other sensitive tissues. The pulp can become exposed and infected for a variety of reasons, including tooth decay or a cavity. Such issues will result in extreme discomfort, which will require root canal treatment to prevent it from getting worse. The pulp, along with the blood vessels and nerve tissues, is extracted from the tooth during a root canal treatment. After that, the pulp chamber is sealed to prevent bacteria from entering.
During the first procedure, our dentist will take an x-ray of the tooth and apply anesthetics to the tooth and surrounding gum. Once that area of your mouth numbs, our dentist will place a small protective sheet called a “dental dam,” which helps keep the tooth clean and prevents saliva from entering during the procedure. Following that, our dentist will make an opening on top of the tooth and use modern technology to clean the pulp from the pulp chamber and root canals. After the root canal chambers are cleaned and shaped, our dentist will fill the root canals with biocompatible material. Further measures are taken to ensure the root canals are sealed. Finally, a permanent crown will be placed to restore the bite and functionality of your mouth.
