Root Canals

Yes the tooth's nerve is in the roots and ends in the crown of the tooth. Extracting a tooth will remove the nerve. It is important to discuss different treatment options with a dentist because sometimes a root canal is the preferred treatment and sometimes extraction is more appropriate. Not all teeth need to be replaced but if the tooth is important for function, bite stability, or esthetics than tooth replacements such as dental implants or fixed bridges become important options to consider.

If you don't have a crown placed on a root canaled tooth, it could fracture or break resulting in the tooth having to be extracted.

Root canals are not needed because of braces. It is just a coincidence if you need a root canal after you have had braces. Most likely what happened is that your home care was not the best while you had braces on so you developed a cavity. If the cavity is not treated it continues to get worse. Once the cavity gets close to the nerve of the tooth a root canal will have to be performed and the tooth will need a crown on it.

treatment is performed under local anesthesia. A thin sheet of rubber, called a rubber dam, is placed in the mouth to isolate the tooth. The dentist removes any tooth decay and makes an opening through the natural crown of the tooth into the pulp chamber

A root canal is a procedure that can extend the useful life of a tooth that is infected and would otherwise be lost. If your quality of life or your appearance will not be adversely affected, then a root canal is not absolutely necessary, but the tooth should then be extracted to get rid of the infection. Living with the infection can lead to more serious complications.

PYORRHEA IS A discharge of pus (short simple answer). Commonly, when we talk about "pyorrhea", we are refering to a dental disease. In it's advanced form, there will be a formation of pus between the bottom (roots) of the tooth and the gums around it. Many times it will cause the loosening of the tooth also. Anyone who thinks that they may have it, or starting to have it, should see their dentist ASAP!

Usually a completed root canal treatment should be pain-free.

I dont know but when you find out, tell me. its been for days and i am still eating 'mush!"

When a tooth's nerve tissue or pulp is damaged, it breaks down and bacteria begin to multiply within the pulp chamber. The bacteria and other decayed debris can cause an infection or abscessed tooth. An abscess is a pus-filled pocket that forms at the end of the roots of the tooth. An abscess occurs when the infection spreads all the way past the ends of the roots of the tooth.

That depends on what type of dental work you had. If it was a surgical procedure, or if you were sedated for the procedure, then it would probably be best to wait a day or so before doing a heavy workout. And if you were sedated, or if you were given narcotic pain meds, DO NOT drive for the rest of the day.

In my experience the answer is yes. I have had three root canals and only one crown. Let me explain before you get excited. I had an uneventful, yet rather expensive root canal/crown combo shortly after having my son 8 years ago. Then I had another root canal done in 2/08. I had a temporary filling in place. I never went to get the crown done because it was too expensive and I had lost my dental coverage. Well fast forward to today and I had to get another root canal on that same tooth because it became reinfected and was throbbing painful. So while researching "how long until Novocaine wears off". I saw this question was unanswered and thought I could share my experience. I know the entire root canal/crown thing is really darn expensive but in my experience don't wait, 'lest you want to do it all over again.' By the way, the charge to redo my root canal was more, not less expensive the second time around. You better believe I am getting my crown right away this time.

I recently had a root canal done on a tooth that has been dead for about 20 years. I'm 36 now and decided its time for braces.never had any pain in the tooth,but in order to get braces a root canal needed to be preformed. Low and behold a few days later after the canal was completed I am experiencing sinus pressure on my forhead near the bridge of my nose, no other cold sumptoms,just pressure.I wondered if the two were connected and have been told by several people that it is a possibility.either way I will see my doctor tomm. and have her put me on antibiotics to see if it will get rid of this problem..hope this helps

There are so many things that could cause this. It can be a nerve issue that requires your neck to be popped, it could be a mild allergic reaction to a food or product you are using, it could be a mild case of herpes, or it could be a contact reaction to a texture (such as a man's stubble). It if is on-going see if you can relate it to anything you are doing/eating. If not, see if it relates to any tension in your neck. If the numbness come with a tingling sensation, and a slight redness then it could be herpes.

I got one recently and I am only ten and they don't hurt except for when they drill the whole and when they give you the shot! But other than that you will be fine! and if you are scared just think about when it is DONE!
