  1. Root Canal Treatment in Guelph A Step-by-Step guide to root canal treatment

  2. What is Root Canal Treatment? • Root Canal Treatment is a set of specialized procedures designed to treat problems of the soft pulp (nerve) tissue inside the tooth. • Root Canal Treatmentis a treatment to repair and save a badly damaged or infected tooth instead of removing it. • The procedure involves removing the damaged area of the tooth (the pulp) and cleaning and disinfecting it, then filling and sealing it.

  3. Causes of Root Canal Problems Root canal problems stem from infection and inflammation of the tooth's pulp tissue. Potential causes of infection are: • deep tooth decay • untreated dental cavities • chipped or cracked teeth • trauma to the tooth  from a sports injury or accident

  4. Signs and Symptoms How do you know when you need a root canal?  If you notice any of these symptoms, you need to have an examination as soon as possible. • constant and severe pain and pressure in your mouth • noticeable swelling • extreme sensitivity in your gums

  5. What to Expect During Root Canal Therapy • An examination to confirm that you do need root canal therapy. • The root canal process generally begins the same way as a filling does, and with no greater discomfort: an anesthetic is administered to numb the tooth and the surrounding area. • Next, a small opening is made in the surface of the affected tooth to give access to the pulp chamber and root canals. • The chamber and empty canals are then cleaned, disinfected, and prepared to receive a filling of inert, biocompatible material. • Finally, adhesive cement is used to seal the opening in the tooth, preventing future infection.
