Get rid of tooth decay and dental caries by opting for root canal treatment
Tooth decay can cause severe toothache and is a condition which most of us would avoid at all costs. The condition is also known as dental caries and it occurs when the enamel on the tooth becomes damaged.
The problem stems from two types of bacteria which damage the teeth, often causing holes to occur. If left untreated, the disease can lead to pain and even tooth loss.
If the infection reaches the pulp of the teeth, then a root canal treatment may be needed. Because this treatment can be quite difficult, it is always preferable to stop this infection before it reaches this stage. Sometimes tooth decay can occur without any pain so the patient is not aware of it until it is too late and root canal treatment is then necessary. But if you do feel any pain, you should visit your dentist immediately. Visiting your dentist regularly is the best way to achieve good oral health.
In a root canal treatment, the infected pulp of the tooth is removed and the root is cleaned and filled to prevent the infection returning.
Root canal treatment is done using local anaesthesia in order to make the procedure almost painless.
