RootCanal Therapy - To save carious and painful teeth , a root canal treatment, or
endodontic therapy is performed in which there is removal of the infected pulp from chamber and
root canals of the teeth. After the infected pulp is removed, the root canals
are cleaned, sealed, and protected by the placement of a dental crown.
Successful
Root Canal Treatments
Most patients don’t ask their dentist
about the tools and instruments they use to perform the various treatments they
offer. When preparing a tooth for root canal therapy, thoroughly cleaning the
pulp chamber and associated canals is the most important phase in successful
root canal treatment. Patients often think it doesn’t matter how a procedure is
accomplished, as long the treatment is effective.
This
procedure has been performed by dental clinics for many years, but more
recently an advanced method of performing root canals was developed and is
called rotary endodontics.
At Dr. Bharat Katarmal Dental Clinic,Jamnagar, we use rotary endodontic technology to make the experience quicker,
smoother and more pleasant for patient and dentist also.
Advantages
of Latest Rotary Endodontics
♦ More
Efficient than Manual Methods
Rotary endodontics utilizes a hi-tech
electrical handpiece that can clean, shape, enlarging canals better and more
efficiently than traditional manual methods. The tips are made of nickel
titanium, which are five times more flexible than stainless steel. This means
that the procedure is quicker and more reliable. In short, it is time saving
and efficient technique.
♦ Low
Risk of Complications
There is also is less risk for broken
file complications. Fewer x-rays are required because the machine with apex
locator identifies the length of the canal.
♦ More Comfortable and Stress free
The electric handpiece is remarkably
quieter and won’t be irritating to patient. This noise can be a source of
anxiety for some patients; so eliminating it makes the process less stressful for
patients. Although the rotary handpiece do make a whirring noise, it is barely
noticeable.
♦ Quite
Painless
Mechanical
rotation of endodontic rotary system possesses the enhanced ability to collect
and remove debris from the canal system compared to manual filing. Hand
instrumentation can push debris laterally into canal intricacies or apically
through the foramen when using techniques that commonly use piston-like file
insertions or counter clockwise directional motion. Conversely, continuous
clockwise rotation will convey debris only in a coronal direction. The pushed
debris and microorganisms beyond the foramen is one of the major causes of pain
after root canal treatment. Rotary endodontic system doesn’t push debris beyond
tooth.
