To understand endodontic treatment, it helps to know something about the anatomy of the tooth. Inside the tooth, under the tooth’s hard layers, there is a soft tissue called the pulp. The pulp contains blood vessels and nerves. when the pulp, inside the tooth and in root canals( channel inside the root) becomes damaged caused by deep decay, injury to the tooth the blood vessels may die and pulp becomes inflamed or infected. If pulp inflammation or infection is left untreated, it can cause pain or lead to an abscess.
The aim of root canal treatment is to remove the inflamed or infected pulp, carefully clean and shape the inside of the root canals and then filll and seal the space. Afterwards, your dentist will place a crown or other restoration on the tooth to protect and restore it to full function. After restoration, the tooth continues to function like any other tooth. Although root canal therapy has a high degree of success, it cannot be guaranteed. Occasionally, a tooth which has had root canal therapy, may require endodontic re-treatment, surgery, or extraction, all of which are a financial responsibility of the patient.
Re-Treatments
If previous treatment has not achieved satisfactory results, or the canals have become re-infected, a further attempt can be made to cleanse the canals and re-treat the tooth. Teeth involved in re-treatments are more complicated to disinfect and often require the removal of any obstructions to the canal.
Root canal treatment is an attempt to save a tooth which otherwise require extraction
