  2. ROOT CANAL TREATMENT When a patient comes with pain in tooth that has nerve damage due to an infection or dental decay, the solution to saving that tooth may lie in a root canal treatment. To maintain proper functioning, your tooth does not necessarily need its nerve, it  has no sensation after the nerve is removed but it remains fully functional.

  3. 6 Tips To Follow After Root Canal Treatment After your root canal procedure, you must be sure to follow your dentist’s instructions. Proper care is mandatory to maintain a healthy mouth. The following are 6 tips to follow after root canal treatment: • Take your prescriptions as directed • Avoid certain foods • Pay attention to your pain levels • Be careful to not put pressure on your infected tooth • Keep the area clean • Consider getting a crown for your tooth

  4. Take your prescriptions as directed It is necessary to take any prescribed medicines as directed in order to prevent any further or additional infection.

  5. Pay attention to your pain levels The discomfort you feel after a root canal treatment can typically be treated with normal pain killer medicines like combiflame, ketorol. if you have a intense pain, contact your dentist immediately.

  6. Keep the area clean Maintain proper oral hygiene in the area of treatment. Keep the area very clean. You can do so by continue to brush and floss regularly and gently rinsing your mouth.

  7. Avoid Certain Foods Any food that is hard, chewy, or crunchy should be avoided right after you have a root canal.

  8. Be careful to not put pressure on your infected tooth Your tooth can  be very tender after the treatment. Do not put undue pressure on the treated tooth. Try not to chew from that side till root canal is fully completed.

  9. Consider getting a crown for your tooth Root canal treatment is usually attempted in a tooth which is grossly damaged and decayed. Further, after the root canal treatment, the   tooth becomes brittle like glass due to the  lack of blood and nerve supply. The tooth can fracture anytime under heavy masticatory forces. Hence it is mandatory to put a crown after root canal treatment in most of the cases to increase the longevity of the tooth and preventing it from breakage.
