Root Canals

First, severe toothache requires a trip to the dentist. But, if you can't get to the dentist immediately, I have found that 800 mg of ibuprofen will stop the pain. For topical relief a product like Anbesol gives some temporary relief by numbing the area a bit.

I remember a few years ago, I had a rotten tooth. My dentist said if he didn't perform a root canal, the rot would get to my bloodstream, poison, and kill me. So the root canal saved my life. And it didn't even hurt much.

Yes, you probably will feel some kind of pain upon having your wisdom teeth removed. If you like, you can be put to sleep so you don't feel the actual removal of the wisdom teeth. Afterwards, you will probably have pain for at least a couple of days. But the pain shouldn't last much longer than a few days, and most dentists will write you a prescription for pain medicine if needed.

I had all four of mine pulled out when I was young. I wasn`t sedated however they did have to freeze my mouth. The shots hurt depending on how big the needle is. (The needle my surgeon used was HUGE). Apart from that, after the freezing, the surgery was fine just a bit of crunching and pressure between the cheek and your eye. I was really swollen and I had pain killers and antibiotics to reduce the pain. Eat soft foods like ice cream, potatoes, soup and Jell-O for the first few days. Other then that you will be fine! Good luck and I hope everything goes well ! :-)

If the tooth can be saved with a root canal (pulpotomy) or other treatment, it should be done. The adult tooth that will replace this baby tooth may not erupt until the child is six or seven years old, and the dental arch may shrink if the baby tooth is lost too soon. This will lead to problems when the adult tooth erupts and the child may require extensive and expensive orthodontic treatment to correct the problems.

Endodontic

Its is bascically a normal filing, except for the fact that a normal filing is when a dentist drills through your tooth and stops drilling before the nerve and then cleans the inside cavity and fills the tooth again. A root canal filing is when the dentist is required to drill all the way to the nerve and then clean the tooth, this procedure may become painful if repeatidly done as the nerve end gets damaged and numbing injections start to have less effect and you will then feel a bit of pain during the procedure. Root canals are only done when tooth decay has moved all the way to the root"nerve" of the tooth.

Endodontic surgery involves dental surgery. It is a procedure that involves opening the gum tissue and removing the bone and end of the root of the troublesome tooth.

A dentist can with an x-ray. Also, ask to see an endodontist, a root canal specialist, who can perform a couple of quick tests to check the vitality in the nerves of your tooth.

It is generally not being used in the UK anymore certainly due to his carcinogenic properties. Ferric sulphate is now used instead.

In all honesty, even after all the health considerations, it may not be worthwhile to you financially to have a root canal. I spent almost 2,000 dollars on having a bio-calyx type root canal treatment and porcelain crown. The crown broke after three years and the tooth itself was never cured of infection. So now I still have to pay to get it extracted and will try using a flipper or partial for now (until genetic therapy comes along if it does). In all I have had 4 root canals costing near 5,000 dollars and have kept none of the teeth. In the meantime I believe I have put my health in jeopardy as a result. That is not to say that one cant have root canal teeth and be symptom free, but to me it is a health risk that might catch up to you eventually.

bio-calyx is a root canal filling material you should avoid. It is considered a banned substance and has been proven to expand upon setting therefore splitting a root! Root canals are a viable option in saving a tooth, and if you ever need a root canal, you should make sure you have it done by an ENDODONTIST (a root canal specialist) who will do it right the first time.

homestyle man, no such thing as free pulling

The vestibule

I don't know but actually I chew Trident gum and it helps with your breath

It's says on the label I think it said it on the back that if you chew it for like 10 to 20 minutes after you eat a meal or just a snack or something you'll have healthier gums and fresher breath.

If your tooth needs a root canal and is not painful, then it must be a dead tooth.

When a tooth is dead, it is a source of infection which is not good. It is possible that it could hurt in the future due to infection. Better to have the root canal done, because you're trying to save your tooth. If you don't have the root canal treatment done and your tooth continues to decay, the dentist might have to pull that tooth out in the future. Once you pull out your tooth, that's gone forever

I would think not. The vomiting could be from the stress or fear, or if you are taking a pain killer. Call your dentist immediately. If you still have pain, pain can also cause nausea in some individuals, but I am likely to think it could be from pain killers you are taking.

It all depends on a particular plan. Now, do not take it for financial, professional, and or legal advice, - the best thing is to call dentist's office, you are going to visit for the root canal treatment, and ask them to check with your plan. Keep in mind that most plans that cover for root canal treatments have deductibles, co-pays, some may have waiting period, maximum payable charge, etc., and most important have inadequate annual limits. Example: let's say your need the root canal treatment for $1400, and the plan pays for it after $100 deductible at 70% up-to $1400 fee after 3 months of waiting, then it should cover $910 (your co-pay is $490) assuming you have had the plan for at least 3 months. However, if your annual limit is $1000, and you have had other work done for let's say $400 dollars, then you only have $600 left on the plan, so never mind that "it should cover $910" because there is only $600 left on the plan. By the way, if you call the dental plan to check on the remaining annual amounts left right after getting other treatment done, you may not get accurate number until those claims are processed, which may take from a few days to a few months.

antibiotic induced swelling....'oma' = tumour (swelling)

eg: breast

when an abscess occur in the breast and antibiotic was given, without even draining the abscess, the abscess cavity next will become fibrous and it result in firm to large lump in the breast.

this hard lump can be confused for malignancy.

to teat this... excision need to be done...

your baby does not feel anything. the pain is limited to only you. pain after a root canal is normal for up to a week. If the pain does not start to diminish though after a week you need to call your dentist and maybe get on an antibiotic.

have it filled again. Or have a crown placed. When the root is removed the tooth is dead, making it brittle. there is no blood supply keeping the tooth alive anymore. A crown will keep the remaining tooth structure together so it doesn't fall apart.

Well there are many ways you can get string tie it to your tooth or something heavy then either slam the door or drop the heavy item i personally don't like this because how are you going to tie a string to a tooth so i get some stuff any thing really to numb your gum and it will fall right out Hope I Help :-)

It is not uncommon to have more than two canals and even up to 4 or more. It appears your dentist has missed something so call him/her and get in immediately. ALL dentists have a few emergency appointments held back for cases such as yours. Good luck

More than likely, the gums are either irritated by the temporary crown or they are inflamed due to inadequate oral hygiene. Ask your dentist for a prescription of Chlorhexedine Gluconate .12% (trade names are Peridex or Periogard). Rinse and brush with it daily until your permanent crown is placed.

Here is a typical crown procedure, individual cases may vary: 1. The tooth is put to sleep with a local anesthetic injection(for patient comfort during procedure). 2. The dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth with a small drill-like instrument. 3. The dentist carves and shapes the remaining tooth to receive the new crown. Sometimes a cement-like material is added to create the desired shape. 4. An impression of the prepped tooth is taken by having the patient bite down on a rubber material. 5. A temporary crown, made of plastic or metal is cemented in place on the prepped tooth. 6. At a second appointment, the temporary crown is removed and the new permanent crown is put in place. 7. The dentist checks the new crown for proper fit, making small adjustments if necessary. 8. When the crown fits properly, it is permanently cemented in place.

I went to Dr. Xavier Aguirre in Nuevo Progresso and was very happy with the results. It cost for a root canal, didn't need a crown. My dentist in Dallas wanted to do the root canal and a crown for . The Dr. explained everything in detail. I felt I received much better treatment with Dr. Aguirre than any U.S. dentist I've gone to. www.draguirre.com But watch out, because most of the times when you do a root canal you would need a crown to preserve the tooth and make it solid. If you cannot afford the crown, that is understandable, but if you could, it is very recommended that you put one on your tooth.
