Root Canals

Not given to babies.

ANOTHER ANSWER:

Sometimes a procedure called a 'pulpotomy' is performed on baby teeth. It is essentially the same as a root canal procedure on an adult tooth. The tooth is numbed with local anesthetic, the tooth is opened with a dental drill, the nerve and the infection is removed, and filling material is used to restore the tooth. It will typically preserve the baby tooth until the tooth is lost in the normal process of growth or 'exfoliation' where baby teeth are lost to make room for the permanent teeth.

no it is not your baby will be high dont risk the baby being addicted to such a strong drug as novicaine

- That is B.S. it has nothing to do with being addicted and secondly Novicaine is not even used in dentistry anymore. Besides, do all dental patients come out of the office addicted! NO! If you don't know anything about dentistry please refrain from typing about it. Having any medications during pregnancy can have risks to the baby, many local anesthetics contain epinephrine. However you should discuss it with you OBGYN and DDS, the best time to have dental work done is in your second trimester. Think, is it better to have a possible systemic infection due to an untreated dental problem or a small amount of a widely used anesthetic. While most elective procedures should be postponed if you are at risk of getting an infection from a tooth which is badly decayed you need to have it addressed.

In some cases loose teeth can be reinforced via a splint. Which can be made of different things, most cases involve bonding the tooth to the adjacent teeth with composite or a bonding tape, applied to the lingual side of the tooth. This is a meant to be a temporary fix until a decision is made either on the patient or dentist side as how to proceed with the case.

Its a root canal treatment with proper excision of polyp and proper debridement of pulp tissues.

No.

When I got my bottom left wisdom tooth pulled, and a molar pulled I left the dentist office with a prescription for 25 5mg percocet which I took 1 every four hours. Usually, they give you vicodin but I requested percocet because it is stronger. You can also request a non-narcotic pain killer which I have been told works just as good as the narcotic kind. Another option is to use over the counter medications such as Tylenol or ibuprofen.

It's possible, but the infection will most likely come back again. There is no telling when, but it will. A week, two years, no way to tell.

- You can also see an endodontist for a retreatment where the old filling material is removed and replaced or an Apicoectomy, where a small incision is made on through the gum and bone and the tip of the root is treated and resealed. -RDH

Yes, a buildup is contraindicted immediately after a Root Canal Treatment. Primarily you want to make sure that root canal treatment is asymptomatic before placing any permanent restorations on the tooth. If the dentist or endodontist needs to re-enter the tooth bec. the root canal continues to give problems (pain, formation of abscess) it would be easier to remove the temporary filling. Should leave the temp. filling for 2 weeks and then if asymptomatic then do composite Buildup.

Have it done as soon as possible. Any leftover nerve tissue may become calcified over time and cause future complications with the treatment. Any leftover bacteria will cause infection in the tooth and jaw.

i had a partial root canal and had a temporary filling put in it. i waited three months before getting it finished, although you should have it done as soon as you can

Put it under your pillow and the tooth fairy will come for it

It simply means that the dentist didn't get all the tooth out - leaving a small piece (or splinter) behind. The splinter usually works its way out of the gum in time.

Root canal surgery is done by an endodontist.

vital pulp therapy performed to encourage continued physiological formation and development of the tooth root.

The mouth contains a mixture of both good and bad bacteria, and those "bad" bacteria include the ones that cause cavities and gum disease.

Of course. How would you get hurt by that?

sodium fluoride in your tooth paste.

no

just stuff a cotton pelet in your tooth, it wont hurt because your nerves are taken out. unfortunatly Im going through the same problem myself atm
