Root canal treatment<\/strong>, commonly known as “killing the nerve”<\/strong> is a procedure to remove the affected pulp from a damaged or dead tooth and to seal the canal. The pulp is the deep part of the tooth and contains blood vessels and nerves. It is located in the central part of the root and connects the tooth with the jawbone.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider height=”5″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ hide_on_mobile=”on”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”CAUSAS” background_layout=”dark” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ text_font_size=”32″ text_font_size_phone=”24″ text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_text_color=”#ffffff” background_color=”#00a8b4″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”0px||10px|0px” custom_padding=”20px||20px|” use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n CAUSES:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.47″ text_font_size=”16″ background_color=”#ffffff” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”-20px|0px|0px|0px” custom_padding=”10px|10px|10px|20px” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n In most cases root canal treatments must be performed due to cavities that evolve and reach the nerve, causing pain and the well-known dental phlegmon.<\/p>\n Other times it may be caused by trauma, an accident or tooth impact that causes a fracture or a crack that affects the nerve. However, this is happening less and less, as the entire discipline of dentistry is evolving towards a much less invasive treatment. Root canals are often performed before placing a ceramic crown on a tooth, as the nerve cannot withstand the drilling prior to fitting the crown. This is known as a root canal for prosthetic purposes and is done with modern metal-free ceramics that require much less space to achieve an attractive finish.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”TIPOS” background_layout=”dark” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ text_font_size=”32″ text_font_size_phone=”24″ text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_text_color=”#ffffff” background_color=”#00a8b4″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”0px||10px|0px” custom_padding=”20px||20px|” use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n TYPES OF ROOT CANAL TREATMEN<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb admin_label=”UNIRRADICULAR” title=”SINGLE ROOT” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%49%%” icon_placement=”left” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ background_color=”#ffffff” animation=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n When it affects a tooth that has only one root and therefore only one root canal.

A preliminary x-ray is necessary in all cases.<\/p>\n First of all, the necessary anaesthetic is given, the operating field is prepared, and the tooth is isolated. The tooth is opened as little as possible to expose the root canal and the damaged pulp. The pulp tissue is removed, and the root canal is cleaned and widened using appropriate instruments and material. The canal is then sealed perfectly with a thermoplastic material (gutta-percha) and cement. Control x-rays may be necessary during the different steps. This prepares the tooth to be restored. Teeth that have undergone a root canal treatment may require a crown to be fitted for aesthetic and functional purposes.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=”Fila” _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_column_inner type=”1_2″ saved_specialty_column_type=”2_3″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.clinicadentalrocasantiago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/muela-nervio.jpg” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=”1_2″ saved_specialty_column_type=”2_3″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.clinicadentalrocasantiago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ENDODONCIA2.jpeg” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=”Fila” _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_column_inner type=”4_4″ saved_specialty_column_type=”2_3″][et_pb_text admin_label=”BENEFICIOS” background_layout=”dark” _builder_version=”3.0.106″ text_font_size=”32″ text_font_size_phone=”24″ text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_text_color=”#ffffff” background_color=”#00a8b4″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”0px||10px|0px” custom_padding=”20px||20px|” use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n BENEFITS AND ADVANTAGES<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.106″ background_color=”#ffffff” custom_margin=”-20px|0px|0px|0px” custom_padding=”10px|10px|10px|20px” use_border_color=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_divider height=”20″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ hide_on_mobile=”on”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_sidebar orientation=”right” area=”et_pb_widget_area_1″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ header_font_size=”21″ remove_border=”off”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_sidebar][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section” background_color=”#00454d” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.clinicadentalrocasantiago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/imagen-fondo-azul.jpg” parallax=”on” custom_padding_tablet=”50px|0|50px|0″ transparent_background=”off” padding_mobile=”off” prev_background_color=”#ffffff”][et_pb_row admin_label=”row” padding_mobile=”off” column_padding_mobile=”on” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider height=”20″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ hide_on_mobile=”on”] THE FIRST APPOINTMENT IS FREE.
