ENDODONTIC TREATMENT

Endodontics is a kind of freezing of the tooth.Usually, the aim of endodontics is to save the tooth from extraction. Instead of extracting a diseased or damaged tooth, a dentist performs root canal treatment to keep the tooth in the mouth for a long time.

In cases where the pulp of the teeth (living tissue containing the vascular nerve bundle) causes infection due to untreated caries, in cases where fracture, cracking, trauma and previous fillings damage the pulp, in cases where the pulp is damaged as a result of teeth grinding, in prosthetic restorations of crooked teeth, canal treatment may be required.

With the developing technology, root canal treatment has ceased to be a painful and feared treatment. The pulp tissue of the tooth is reached under local anesthesia and the number of radiographs taken during the treatment is reduced by measuring the root lengths with electronic instruments called Apex locators. With rotary instrument systems, the canal is shaped and filled quickly, comfortably and adequately.

In our clinic, we also perform REZEKSİYON (root tip surgery of the tooth), which is an endodontic surgical procedure. It is a surgical procedure performed in cases where root canal treatment is not sufficient or appropriate.

In addition, retreatment treatment is also applied in our clinic. This treatment is the process of renewing the canal treatment in cases where we think that the canal fillings are made poorly and unhealthy, in case of inflammation or abscess formation and pain under a work that has undergone canal treatment.

As Akdeniz Şifa Dental Clinic, we ensure that the treatment achieves optimum success by applying the latest technology in our root canal treatments.
