Causes such as fistulas from infections are other reasons that require root canal treatment. If the pulp becomes infected or dies and is not treated at this stage, inflammation begins to form in the jawbone at the root of the tooth. This inflammation causes severe pain by compressing the bone around the tooth.
HOW LONG DOES A ROOT CANAL TREATMENT LAST?
The anatomy of each tooth is different, so the same program cannot be used for every root canal treatment. Therefore, no clear information on the duration of treatment can be given. Years ago it was common to perform a root canal treatment in 2 sessions. So if the tooth was filled in the same session after cleaning, serious problems could arise. How long does a root canal treatment take today?
ROOT TREATMENT – SHORT AND PAINLESS WITH HOLLYWOOD DENTAL
At Hollywood Dental Izmir, advanced equipment in both imaging and treatment, and the methods that depend on them, make it easy to clean the inside of the tooth, so that root canal treatment can be successfully performed in a single visit. As you can imagine, root canal treatments, which can be performed in one session with new treatment methods, are in high demand among both patients and dentists.
Therefore, root canal treatment performed in one session by our endodontists is more convenient and cheaper. Because speed and efficiency reduce treatment costs in the long run.
The duration of the root canal treatment depends not only on the edodontist, but also on the position of the teeth. For example, the first molars in the upper jaw are the most difficult to treat and require more time. These teeth can have 3 or 5 canals. Depending on how many root canals there are on each tooth, the treatment may take longer than expected. This situation and the cost are often proportional to the complexity of the treatment.
A third visit may be required to insert the needles during those cumbersome root canal procedures. However, it is possible to prevent the use of pins using modern composite bonding techniques.
