Why Would a Tooth Require Aurora IL Root Canal Treatment?

Inside every tooth is an area called the pulp chamber that contains blood vessels, nerves, and tissues. Tooth pulp inflammation or infection can develop due to a tooth chip or crack, deep decay, trauma, a damaged restoration, or repeated dental procedures.

Root canal treatment is required to treat teeth with pulp damage. It involves removing the infected or inflamed tooth pulp from within the damaged tooth, eliminating the infection. Root canal treatment not only relieves your pain but also prevents the spread of infection to other teeth and other parts of the body.

What Are Signs of Tooth Pulp Damage Requiring Root Canal Treatment?

The following are the most common signs of tooth pulp damage requiring root canal treatment:

• Persistent tooth pain that intensifies when you chew or apply pressure to the tooth
• Sensitivity to cold and hot temperatures that tends to linger
• Swollen, tender gums or a pimple-like bump on the gums
• Tooth discoloration that usually occurs as a result of trauma
• A chipped or cracked tooth, which provides harmful bacteria an entryway to the pulp

What Happens During a Root Canal Treatment?

We start by making a small opening in the crown of the affected tooth to remove the diseased pulp tissues. Next, we carefully clean and disinfect the root canals and fill them with a biocompatible material known as gutta-percha before sealing the area. After your root canal, we will place a dental crown over your treated tooth to protect it and restore its form and function. With proper care and maintenance, your root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime!
