A rubber filling is then packed inside, providing a barrier to stop any bacteria from entering the root canal system.
Treatment of an infected pulp usually requires a root canal treatment and must be performed by a fully trained dentist, as it can become a complex procedure. Dr Khaliq has extensive experience with this particular procedure and ensures your root canal treatment goes painlessly.
On rare occasions, the procedure may have to be repeated, which can cause further issues. Envy Dental gives you total peace of mind as we are highly skilled in both root canal treatments and re-root treatments and have successfully treated many patients.
The treatment is designed to stop the spread of infection and save the tooth.
Generally, we perform root canals in the following way:
We usually leave the tooth to settle down and will revisit it at a later date to remove the temporary filling and place the permanent material (a special rubber) inside. The tooth is then capped and sealed.
We have to eliminate bacteria within the canal, whilst reducing the potential for moisture to get anywhere near the area being treated, ensuring the tooth is preserved through a proper filling technique. Dr Khaliq has performed many root canal treatments for a range of patients with different dental issues, which has prevented the loss of these teeth. His experience in undertaking this type of treatment gives you total peace of mind and, more importantly, allows you to experience painless root canal treatments.
This treatment can save your tooth but requires careful and well-planned procedures.
