Smoking has no effect on root canal therapy, or endodontic therapy.
Previously a poster wrote that smoking had caused dry socket. Dry socket is a sequela to an extraction; smoking can adversely influence the healing status of the socket of an extracted tooth.
No
My Doc said you can smoke after 2 Hrs of the treatment..
its a bad tooth dats dead
i need to have a tooth added on to my partial plate
If a tooth has a root canal filling you will not be able to know because the main factors of a tooth that has gone bad is sensitive to hot and cold or tender when putting any pressure on the tooth but if it has a root canal it is slightly different because the nerve is removed so you cant feel it. The tooth if it has a root canal will always go dark as the tooth is dead but this does not mean it is bad. The main sign of a bad tooth that has had root canal is an abscess under the tooth so if you feel pain when lying down that is keeping you awake at night or when leaning forward it really hurts then you have an abscess and that tooth will most probably have to be re-root canalled by a specialist or extracted! :)
hi my name is Sabrina, i in of a bad root canal. It hurt so bad to the point i can sleep or eat even cry myself to sleep! i have a medicaid and over 20!! help
Yes you can exercise after a root canal. It will have no interfierence.
Yes! In fact, half of the time, its the root canal which clears away the infection as your dentist would usually file away the "bad" part of the tooth anyway.
i am 12 years old i just had my root canal today. It didn't hurt bad they just nummed the area around the tooth it was fine. For a child the biggest factor is fear.
The Panama Canal is in Panama, about 1600 miles from the southernmost border of the United States.A root canal is a dental procedure, not a canal.
Because the sucking motion it takes to smoke can damage the work done inside a tooth.
The medical code for root canal Anterior is D3310.
