If root canal treatment is to be performed in order to save your tooth, the application takes place in stages. In this sense, in the first step, a preliminary examination of tooth roots and structure is made with the x-ray taken by the dentist. After the examination, the tooth is drilled to clean the infected area. With the help of this hole, pulp, bacteria and decaying nerve tissues are removed from the tooth. It is important that the cleaning phase is carried out perfectly in order to avoid problems again in the future.
Physicians, who are sure that the tooth is cleaned, fill the tooth with filling material to seal the tooth. Guta Percha is used as filling material. This material, also known as rubber compound, does not have a feature that will adversely affect human health. After the filling process, which is carried out in accordance with the tooth structure, the root canal treatment process is finalized.
Root canal treatment can be performed in more than one session depending on the condition of the tooth. The root canal treatment, which is completed in one or two sessions depending on the deterioration of the tooth, is concluded in three sessions for very carious teeth. At this point, the first step is to take an x-ray to determine the condition of your teeth.
After the x-ray, the condition of the tooth is checked, and local anesthesia is applied, and the treatment is started on the tooth. The water and saliva around the tooth are cleaned. At this point, the teeth are carved and the nerve inside is removed. In line with the cleaning of caries and bacteria, the channels in the tooth are prepared to be filled with filling material. The tooth is filled with special filling material and the treatment is concluded.
