  1. How You Know That - YOU MAY NEED ROOTCANAL? Only Some people knows that "Root canals", also known as endodontic therapy, are performed when the nerve or pulp of the tooth becomes infected and inflamed due to dental decay, or due to cracked or broken tooth or because of an injury to the tooth. During the Rootcanals procedure, a dentist uses a drill to remove both the nerve and pulp and seals up the tooth to protect against further damage. Only your dentist or a Toronto dental specialist called an endodontist, can determine whether a root canal will adequately treat your problem. Here are a few possible sign & symptoms for needing root canal treatment.

  2. 1.The intensity of the pain can range from mild to severe; it may lessen or intensify throughout the day, or it may get worse only when you bite down on the tooth. Some patients feel too much sensitivity from hot food or liquids. 2.If you see a pimple like bump on your gums, it could be an abscess. An abscess happens, when the pulp inside the tooth dies. The root is infected with bacteria and a space full of pus forms around it. 3.If cavities are severe or progress untreated, they can reach the pulp. Small cavities can become worse over time, so it's best to treat them early. 4.If you notice one tooth that is discolored, you may need a root canal. A "dead tooth" is susceptible to infection. Rootcanal treatment helps you to maintain your natural smile, continue eating the foods you love and limits the need for ongoing dental work. By considering proper dental care, most teeth that have had root canal treatment can last a lifetime. Make an appointment for free consultation at Downtown Toronto Dentist clinic.
