Root canal treatment

When a large cavity in a tooth reaches the nerve chamber, or in some cases when a tooth breaks, root canal treatment may be required. In order to save the tooth the Blossomfield Dental Care team take great care to painlessly clean and fill infected tooth canals with the most up to date rotary systems, before adding a filling material to seal them.

Within every tooth is a nerve chamber and a blood supply in the root canal. In a healthy tooth, these nerves will be alive. Front teeth will normally have one root holding them in the jaw bone, but back teeth can have two, three or four.

If a large cavity in a tooth reaches the nerve chamber, or if a tooth breaks, bacteria can cause the nerves to die. The root canals can become infected and an abscess may form beneath the root(s) of the tooth, in the jawbone. Pain may occur at any time during this process, and the infection can spread.

Treatment is usually carried out over one or two visits to Blossomfield Dental Care. The purpose of the treatment is to remove the bacteria or dying tissue from inside the tooth and to clean and disinfect the root canals. This is achieved by making a small hole through the tooth into the nerve chamber, locating and measuring the root canals, then cleaning and widening them using fine instruments. Local anaesthetic is used throughout the procedure to avoid any discomfort.

To aid the instrumentation of these intricate channels to the tooth, magnification may be used and if possible, the tooth will usually be isolated to keep the area dry and clear.

Once clean, the canals are filled to seal them off from re-infection. In most cases, infections will start to heal at this point.

Most patients only experience mild discomfort following treatment, but it is common to experience none at all.

Been seeing Marek at Blossomfield for years for dental treatment including the use of Visalign to push out my inverted teeth and two bondings to improve the look of my upper teeth, probably 10 years ago and still looking great. This year I have just had further small bondings on my front lower teeth to fill in gaps and chips, and the match to my own teeth is brilliant. Even I forget they have had dental treatment as they look so natural.

Every member of staff is personable and welcoming. Blossomfield is an attractive environment, the technology is impressive and speeds up procedures which once upon a time would have take much longer.I have been seeing my dental surgeon for 21 years and throughout all of this time i have received the utmost care and attention, he is concerned with the general health of his patient and in my case sensitive to what I am saying in terms of that. When asked he will offer very sound advice, is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. All procedures are fully explained and this patient feels like a partner in the operation.
