Root Treatment / Endodontics

When our teeth are considered anatomically, there is enamel at the outermost, dentin underneath and underneath them is the tissue called pulp, which contains the vascular-nervous system and gives the tooth its vitality. As a result of inflammation of the pulp for various reasons, root canal treatment should be performed.

When the nerve tissue or pulp of a tooth is damaged, it breaks down and bacteria begin to multiply there. The bacteria can lead to an intense infection or abscess. If left untreated, tooth decay can lead to serious conditions such as bone loss around the root.

In the past, when an infection or inflammation progressed to the pulp layer, the tooth could no longer be saved and had to be extracted. Today, recent advances allow the pulp layer of the tooth to be cleaned and refilled.

Today, root canal treatment is performed with specially prepared root canal files and an endomotor. After the inflamed pulp and canals are cleaned and filled, the tooth clinically regains its former form with aesthetic fillings or porcelain veneers.

With the help of technology, the length and location of the canals can reach the physician much more clearly with special devices and the treatment is supported by intraoral x-rays when necessary.

** After the operation day is arranged together, all necessary detailed information will be sent to you.
If you have had any operation before, if you have had a major illness or if you have an ongoing illness, you must inform us.
If you have any allergies, if there is any medication you have used before or if there is any medication you continue to use, you must inform us.
If there is a substance that you have used before or are still using, you need to inform us.
If the operation will be performed with sedation anesthesia, you should not take food and nutritious foods for 8-12 hours.
If the operation will be performed with normal local anesthesia, you should come to the operation as full and full.
Alcohol and blood thinners should be stopped at least 3 days before the day of the operation.
It is good to reduce smoking before the operation for better results.
It is recommended to come to the operation with comfortable and spacious clothes.
It is recommended to do your self-cleaning in advance for you and for situations such as not being able to do it for a while after the operation.

When you arrive on the day of the operation, a plan and an examination are made together with the dentist.
Your dentist evaluates the current condition of your teeth using methods such as digital photos, 3D scanning or x-rays and determines the treatment method.
Pre-operative photos are taken for follow-up in the months after the operation.
Blood test or some necessary tests may be taken.
The patient is taken to the room where the operation will be performed.
Local anesthesia is given to numb the tooth.
An opening is made at the top of the tooth and the root canals are accessed.
After the root canals are opened, your dentist removes the pulp tissue and infected tissues. This is usually done with special instruments.
After the cleaning process is complete, the root canals are shaped and disinfected. This ensures that all germs and debris inside the canals are removed.
The cleaned and shaped root canals are usually filled with gutta-percha or similar biocompatible filling material.
After the root canal treatment, the upper part of the tooth is covered with a temporary filling. (If you wish, a permanent filling or crown can be made later)
X-rays or 3D scans are taken to check the result of root canal treatment.
Tooth photos can be taken for subsequent controls.
After the operation, your dentist will inform you about how to care for your teeth and what you need to pay attention to in order to protect your teeth, after which the patient can go to his hotel.

After the operation, there are things that you should both pay attention to and do.
Brush your teeth regularly. Avoid abrasive toothpastes.
You should clean between your teeth using dental floss or tooth cleaning brushes as recommended by our dentist.
Avoid hard and extremely hot and cold foods for the first few weeks. This type of food can cause damage to your teeth.
Sugary and acidic foods can damage tooth enamel and shorten the life of your teeth. Reduce these as much as possible.
Use painkillers recommended by your dentist. Usually, there is a sensitivity time of 1 week and mild discomfort may be experienced, but if the pain is severe, contact us.
In case of swelling or discomfort, you can apply a cold compress. This reduces edema and provides relief in case of edema.
Make sure you drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet and get enough sleep. Your general health directly affects the oral healing process.
Avoid or limit beverages that may cause discoloration, especially tea, coffee and red wine.
As with every operation, it is recommended not to use alcohol and cigarettes for a week as it is a time of sensitivity. Smoking or excessive alcohol consumption can lead to changes in tooth color and problems in oral health. Limiting or completely quitting these habits will help you maintain your aesthetic results.
Grinding or clenching your teeth can damage the filling on top. If you have this habit, you may need to use a night plate or a protective dental appliance.
For the first few weeks after the operation, avoid excessive physical activity or movements that may damage the mouth area. It may be useful to wear a mouth guard, especially when practicing sports.
Each person's healing process is different. Take care to heal within the time recommended by your dentist and contact us immediately if you experience any problems, pain, sensitivity or problems with the crown.

What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is a treatment performed when the pulp (nerve and vascular tissue) inside the tooth becomes infected or damaged. This procedure aims to remove the infected tissue and protect the tooth.
Why is root canal treatment performed?

Root canal treatment is done when there are problems with the pulp of the tooth, such as infection, deep decay, tooth cracks or trauma. The treatment saves the tooth, relieving pain and keeping the tooth healthy.
Is root canal treatment painful?

Since local anesthesia is usually used during root canal treatment, no pain is felt during the procedure. However, there may be slight discomfort or tenderness after the procedure; this is usually temporary.
How long does a root canal treatment take?

Root canal treatment usually requires one or several appointments. Each appointment can take about 1-2 hours. The treatment time varies depending on the condition of the tooth and the difficulties experienced during the procedure.
Can I feel pain in my tooth after root canal treatment?

Some mild pain and tenderness may be experienced after treatment. This is usually temporary and can be controlled with prescribed painkillers. Prolonged pain may be a problem that is not responding to treatment and your dentist should be contacted.
How can I protect my tooth after root canal treatment?

Regular brushing, flossing and regular visits to the dentist are important to protect the tooth after root canal treatment. A filling or crown may also be recommended to protect the tooth.
How many times can root canal treatment be performed?

Root canal treatment is usually performed once. However, in some cases re-treatment may be necessary. This is usually due to a recurrence of infection or structural problems with the tooth.
Does the appearance of the tooth change after root canal treatment?

The appearance of the tooth usually does not change after root canal treatment. However, the filling or coating on the tooth after treatment may affect the aesthetic appearance of the tooth and aesthetic arrangements can be made.
How long does the tooth last after root canal treatment?

A tooth that has undergone root canal treatment can be used for many years with proper care and regular dental check-ups. The lifespan of the treated tooth depends on the overall health and care of the tooth.
What happens if root canal treatment is not performed?

Without root canal treatment, the pain of the infected tooth may increase, the infection may spread and the tooth may need to be extracted. The spread of infection can damage the surrounding teeth and gums and cause health problems.
