Rotary Endodontics


ROTARY  ENDODONTICS  (HIGH-TECH  ROOT CANAL THERAPY)  at  Pan Dental  Care  in  Melrose

Endodontics, more commonly known as root canal, is a procedure where the roots or nerves of the tooth are removed. This is often due to the fact that they are infected and the tooth is causing pain.

Rotary Endodontics is a way of performing the root canal utilizing a specific electrical handpiece. This tool often makes the process faster and allows the dentist to perform the process with greater ease.

ROOT  CANAL  (ENDODONTICS)  THERAPY

If you're experiencing a great deal of pain and/or sensitivity in a specific tooth, there may be an advanced infection present near the nerve of your tooth. In this case, our dentists are very likely to recommend root canal therapy as the best way to eliminate pain and save yourself the trouble of a missing tooth.

Using special tools, we will access the tooth's inner "pulp" and remove it from the canals, thereafter filling the canals with a safe, biocompatible substitute. Countless teeth treated with root canal therapy go on to last for many more years - this procedure has a success rate of over 95%!


In the meantime, here are some tips for what to do before you're able to reach our office:

  • Facial swelling is likely to occur when teeth are broken. The use of a cold compress held against the cheek can help reduce this.
  • Apply light pressure to any bleeding with gauze or a washcloth. If the bleeding is particularly heavy and sustained, please go straight to your nearest emergency room.
  • If the tooth has been knocked out, try placing it gently back into its original socket and holding it there. If this isn't possible, carrying it in a container of milk to the practice is recommended.


DENTAL EMERGENCIES DUE TO ORAL CARE NEGLECT

If good brushing and flossing habits aren't maintained on a day-to-day basis and existing cavities propagate, patients may start to develop serious oral infections that lead to noticeable dental pain (otherwise known as "toothaches").

Of course, this type of discomfort may also be caused by a piece of food or foreign debris that's stuck between the teeth - in order to rule out this possibility, we recommend flossing and rinsing the mouth first.

Otherwise, please don't hesitate to contact our office for further assistance. We may need to perform root canal therapy to remove infected tissue from within the tooth and stabilize its structure. Alternatively, if the infection is already too severe, our only option for relief may be to extract the natural tooth and replace it with a functional and attractive restoration.
