What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat an infected tooth. The procedure involves removing the damaged or infected pulp from the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, and filling it with a material called gutta-percha.
The tooth is then sealed with a crown to prevent further infection. The procedure is typically done to save a damaged or infected tooth from extraction.
The cost/ charges depend upon the severity of the infection.
Finished root canal treatment should always be followed by a dental cap/ crown. If not, it leads to re-infection in root canal-treated teeth and needs re-root canal/ re RCT to save the tooth, and further ignorance may lead to tooth loss.
Consequences of Skipping RCT
The infection may spread into the gums and jawbone and lead to abscess formation.
Severe health conditions, such as heart disease and stroke, may also result from this.
If the pain you're experiencing disappears, it doesn't signify that your teeth have healed over time; instead, it means that the infection has multiplied and the nerves inside your teeth have all died.
Post-Treatment Protocol
After the procedure, you will experience some pain and discomfort. So your dentist will recommend medication.
Avoid smoking, alcohol, hot drinks, and drinking with straws. These promote inflammation.
Brush and floss normally; it’s important to keep the area clean.
If you experience any complications, consult your dentist.
