As the decay gets close to the nerve chambers inside the teeth, the nerves of the teeth become infected. The process of cleaning the nerves of the teeth and filling them is called "root canal treatment".

How is root canal treatment performed?

Root canal treatment is applied to the patient by an endodontist or dentist once or twice.  In Endodontic treatment, a small hole is first created on the upper part of the tooth. The dead or dying part is removed with a series of thin files. After the canals are allowed to be filled, a solution is squeezed and the mouth is wetted to neutralize all bacteria. Following the antibacterial solution, the root canals are dried with small and sterile paper cones.

 

The dried areas are then filled with soft and rubber-like materials. Finally, a permanent restoration is placed on the tooth. The restoration filling process can be simple filling in some cases and deeper filling in others. After the treatment, mild pain and sensitivity can be experienced in the teeth. However, these complaints are generally temporary. In such cases, the best solution is not to use the teeth that have undergone root canal treatment for a few days. After a short time, it will be seen that the sensitivity in the teeth has disappeared.
