When the root of a tooth gets infected and cannot be saved, a Root Canal Treatment (also known as endodontic therapy, endodontic treatment, or root canal therapy) is required. Unlike in the past, there is no reason to be afraid of root canal surgery. The surgery is relatively painless because of modern technology and anesthetics. We do a root canal operation to remove the tooth’s core while leaving the surrounding structure undamaged. The best materials are utilized to cover the tooth after the root canal procedure.

Root canal therapy has several benefits, including the following:

• Chewing with efficiency
• Biting force and sensation are normal.
• Appearance: natural
• Other teeth are protected from excessive damage or strain.

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is a type of treatment that requires a lot of patience and dedication from both the doctor and the patient. When the doctor deems it necessary, local anesthesia is applied to the tooth and around the teeth before the treatment. Thanks to the numbness obtained, the patient does not feel any pain or pain during the treatment.

How Is Root Canal Treatment Done and How Long Does It Take?

Root canal treatment performed by Antalya dental clinic experts tile has certain stages. These stages are as follows:

• First, local anesthesia is applied to the tooth and around the tooth, and the tooth and periphery tissues are anesthetized.
• Root canals are opened to clean the tooth decay.

The main purpose of filling root canals is to protect the canal cavity from microorganisms. In this way, although the tooth is lifeless, it can successfully continue its existence in the mouth.

Root canal treatment can generally be completed in a single session according to the doctor’s decision, but the treatment may take several sessions in infected teeth.
