When the nerve of your tooth becomes infected, a successful
root canal treatment lets you keep the tooth rather than having to pull it out.
Saving your tooth using root canal treatment helps to prevent your other teeth
from drifting out of line and causing jaw problems. A common misconception that
prevents people from undergoing root canal treatment is that it doesn’t last
very long. According to Ridgetop Dental International’s expert dentists
in Bangalore root canal treatment can save your natural tooth and allow
you to keep it functional for decades if proper care is taken. Here’s how.
Factors that make your root canal treatment last longer:
·
One factor that can influence how long a treated
tooth will last is how soon the tooth is restored following the root canal
procedure: The sooner it receives a permanent filling or crown, the longer it
is likely to last.
·
Another factor is whether or not the underlying
infection has spread into the bone of the jaw: A tooth that has received RCT
promptly, before the infection has had a chance to spread, is likely to have
greater longevity. The patients who visit Ridgetop Dental International for root canal treatment in Bangalore
receive the best quality and timely treatment that ensures their tooth remains
functional for years.
·
Front teeth, which are used for cutting, have
single roots (and canals) and are both easier to access and treat. They also
receive less biting force than the back teeth. The back teeth, which by
contrast are used for chewing, have two or three roots and therefore more root
canals; they are more difficult to access and are more complicated to treat.
·
It’s important to place crowns on root canal
treated teeth to cover and protect them from undue stress, which will increase
their longevity.
·
One should not chew or bite on the treated tooth
until you have had it restored by your general dentist because your tooth could
fracture.
