Root canal
There are different ways a root canal can be performed. Root canal can be started different ways depending on the problem. There can be three situations when a root canal is needed and can be done according to the problem. A tooth could be injured, but without a filling. The pulp (the area around the top of the root), and the root died, over the years abscess on the apex (the very bottom of the root) of the tooth formed. This could happen like this, lets say that you were punched in the mouth a long time ago, your tooth moved slightly and was sore for a couple of days and then went away. Then ten years later it started to bother you again. Second reason can be a very deep filling and the tooth broke (recently), after the filling was there or split that opened up a deep filling. This could happen because you went jetskiing and weren't careful, slipped off you jetski and it fell on you knocking a tooth out. Another case can be a case where the filling went to the root of the tooth, the nerve never died - it's alive but the root canal needs to be done because the filling is too deep and it is irritating the tooth. The third reason is when a tooth had a deep filling for years and now it is irritated by i
This is done very rarely says dental assistant Lesya Didovets from Eastman Dental Center. The organic part of the filling is composed of polymers (large organic molecules). In that case the canal is left open and the patient is put on antibiotics. When the canal is clean, a cotton pallet is put in the canal and a temporary filling for another couple of weeks to makes sure there is no more abscess and the disinfecting is good enough to make a permanent filling. The tool used in this area is a broach- this tool looks like a needle with threads on it. The inorganic filler consists of glass particles, fused silica, and quartz crystals. Over time the tooth died slowly and started hurting because of abscess and infection. In this case since the tooth is fractured, and the root was just taken out, there is only a temporary filling made until next appointment. 50 cm long and it looks like a thread of peach colored flesh with capillaries of blood. If everything is okay and there isn't anymore abscess or pus, the canal is cleaned again with the fluoride mixture, filled with cement and natural rubber points, which are called gutta percha. After the canal is cleaned for the last time a permanent filling isn't put in. Instead of a permanent filling a tooth structure is build up using post and cord procedure as described in Procedure #3. The next time a crown is measured to cover the entire tooth area.
