Everything you need to know about Root Canal
Treatment

Definition

• Root canal treatment is a treatment sequence for
  the infected pulp of a tooth which results in the
  elimination of infection and the protection of
  the decontaminated tooth from future microbial
  invasion.

3
Is the tooth dead after a root canal?

• Root canal therapy can reclaim teeth after they
  have died. In order to understand this, you must
  first understand the anatomy of a tooth. The most
  common causes of pulp death are physical trauma
  to the tooth, a cracked tooth, or a deep cavity.

4
Is it better to have root canal?

• Between a root canal and a tooth extraction,
  a root canal is often the preferred choice
  because it works on fixing your natural tooth so
  that it could remain in place. If a tooth is far
  too compromised, your dentist might recommend
  an extraction, followed by a dental implant to
  replace what was lost.

5
Is it my tooth change after root canal?

• Other reasons for staining after a root
  canal includes leftover canal filing materials
  being left in the crown of the tooth and root
  canal medications. The most common cause however,
  is caused by the deadened dentin left inside
  the tooth.

6
Are root canals harmful to health?

• There is no valid scientific evidence supporting
  research to date. Not only are root canals
  safe and effective, they eliminate bacteria
  from the infected roots of teeth, improving
  both your oral health and your overall health. 

7
How root canals affect your health?

• Instead, researchers found that people with root
  canal fillings were no more likely to be ill than
  people without them. Research stated that
  bacteria trapped in the teeth during root
  canal treatment can cause almost any type of
  disease, including arthritis, heart disease,
  kidney disease and others.

8
What happens if a root canal fails?

• Root canals will fail if there are
  undetected canal branches, cracks in the root, or
  an obstruction that makes it difficult to
  properly clean the root of a tooth. A failed root
  canal will begin to hurt and could cause pain
  through a noticeable abscess tooth.
