Why do i need a root canal for a Cracked molar do i need root canal?

A cracked molar may require a root canal if the fracture extends into the pulp, where the nerves and blood vessels are located. This can lead to infection, pain, and further damage if not treated. A root canal removes the infected tissue, alleviates pain, and preserves the tooth, allowing it to function normally. If the crack is superficial and doesn’t affect the pulp, other treatments might be sufficient.

If you had a root canal done 11 months ago with only a temporary filling and you now have braces can you still have the root canal finished?

usually. The braces will not effect the root canal therapy, which should be completed ASAP. Temporary fillings are just that - temporary. They can break down and begin to leak after a certain amount of time. The tooth likely will need a crown after the root canal is completed, in which case the braces may impede the process. At the very least, request a permanent material/filling is placed at the time of root canal completion.


Can you get dry socket from a root canal?

No. By definition, a 'dry socket' is a painful condition that occurs following a tooth extraction, not a root canal. That is not to say that you cannot have pain following a root canal. You can, particularly if the tooth was acutely infected at the time of the root canal, or if the root canal is incomplete. You should consult with the dentist who performed the procedure and follow his/her recommendations.
