Root Canal Treatment and Restoration
At Lonsdale Dental Practice, serving Kirkby Lonsdale, Settle, Bentham, and Lancaster, we understand the importance of providing exceptional root canal treatment to alleviate pain and restore oral health. Here’s what you need to know about root canal procedures and how our advanced techniques can help you regain comfort and confidence in your smile.
What is Root Canal?
The root canal is a hollow area within the tooth that contains soft tissue known as the pulp or nerve. This area extends from the pulp chamber to the tip of the root and is responsible for transmitting sensory signals to the brain. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to decay, trauma, or other factors, root canal treatment may be necessary to save the tooth and alleviate pain.
If you experience symptoms such as pain when biting or chewing, swelling of the gum near the affected tooth, or sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, you may have an underlying root canal issue. It's essential to seek prompt dental care to prevent further complications and preserve the health of your tooth.
At Lonsdale Dental Practice, we specialize in providing expert root canal treatment using state-of-the-art technology and advanced techniques. Our experienced dentists utilize operating microscopes and Cone Beam CT scanners to enhance the quality of diagnosis and treatment, ensuring precision and effectiveness.
Root Canal Treatment in Kirkby Lonsdale
The root canal system consists of main canals and accessory canals that extend through the roots of the tooth. These canals contain highly vascularized dental pulp, which provides nourishment and sensory function to the tooth. Through endodontic therapy, we clean out the infected pulp, disinfect the space, and restore the tooth’s integrity to promote healing and longevity.
Pulp Removal
Skilled dentists carefully remove infected or inflamed pulp from the tooth’s interior during the root canal procedure.
Disinfection
The root canal space is thoroughly disinfected to eliminate any remaining bacteria and prevent further infection.
Filling
Biocompatible material is used to fill the root canal space, sealing it off to prevent reinfection and promote healing.
Pain Relief
This process effectively relieves pain associated with the infected tooth.
Restoration of Function and Structure
Root canal treatment restores the tooth’s function and structure, allowing for normal chewing and biting.
