Canal treatment

Canal cleaning by dentists of the Dent-House Clinic

If you notice a sudden change in the colour of the tooth enamel, dark stains on it or severe toothache with a palpable pulp pulsation, you should not delay – you should make an appointment with an endodontist.

Because the dental canal contains the blood vessels and nerves responsible for the nutrition and blood supply to the tooth, its infection leads to a marked inflammatory response – painful and destructive to the teeth.

In order not to bring the condition of the teeth to the point of needing such treatment, you should at least strictly observe the rules of oral hygiene, as well as regularly appear at a preventive appointment with the dentist. In the worst case, inflammation can lead to the need to remove the nerve – in this situation, the dentist fills the tooth with a strong filling to prevent further infection, preserving the integrity of the tooth as much as possible.

What is endodontic treatment?

Endodontic treatment is a treatment aimed at dental canal disease. It may be required for a variety of seemingly routine conditions:

• tooth decay;
• a neglected chipped enamel;
• pulpitis.

When the integrity of the “defence” of the tooth canal is compromised, bacterial infection quickly develops. As a rule, this process is painless at first, and noticeable and acute pain is manifested only by the time when the soft tissues of the tooth are already severely damaged.

Placement of a gutta-percha filling

One of the modern methods of treating dental canal disease is the placement of a hot gutta-percha filling.

This approach allows you to reliably fill the void in the sanitised tooth canal, thereby sealing it securely and protecting it from re-infiltration or compromising the integrity of the tooth.

Filling with gutta-percha is a modern treatment choice in endodontics, which is ideally mastered by dentists at the Dent House Clinic in Odessa.

Depending on the number of canals in the tooth and the technique, the cost of treatment of one tooth ranges from 1100 to 7500 hryvnias.
